Fort Wayne Safari beat the powerful Tennessee Riverhawks, who 'fall' into a comfortable 5-1 Lay-Z-Boy in overtime this week in Fort Wayne.
The secrets to success were:
1)distract the TEN kicker to making only 1/4 FGs. Two FGs were missed under 20 yards (!) Video of the uprights bending is clearly seen on youtube, but accusations of multiple wires pulling the uprights sideways at an opportune moment were dismissed with 'it was windy'
2)Sack the QB seven times. If TEN's awesome DL could face TEN's league-worst OL, it would be a sackfest
3)Have a good backup HB as HB1 gets knocked out by TEN
4)Punt return for 87 yards for a TD every game vs TEN
5)Have HB1 go for a 77-yard TD pass
6)Keep TEN to 4 first downs rushing, allow him to pass for 22. Contain, don't allow them to pass for more than 2 TDs
7)Keep TEN's defence, arguably the best in the league, to only 2 sacks (They rank #2)
See? It is easy!
