Generically, there certainly are ways to play to your strengths and away from your weaknesses. In the UW game in particular, I did not see any strengths to play to. Clever play calling does not take a team from not competing to a close game.Â
I am pretty sure that if Hall were moved from LT sooner, then somebody else would have been run over repeatedly.
By the way, I have been trying to block much of the carnage from my consciousness, was Hall moved when Tucker got injured?
(perhaps already discussed in the threads I have missed?)
