I left the game at LR 62 to Erskine 0 with 6 minutes left in game. Normally I stay until the very end of any game I go to, but this evening I was so happy that I had to get to the restroom so I would not pee in my pants!
It only took a complete year plus 2 games and 1.25 quarters of this year for the coaching staff at LR to finally play the correct quarterback. While the defense of the Bears is playing lights out D and the special teams stepping to upper level play by any measure, the offense was really a much different experience.
So with no offensive play to speak of, someone made the decision to put Jalen Ferguson in at QB. The change in the team was immediate and significant. 3 Possessions, 3 scores. Passing was pinpoint, he was able to buy time when needed, made great decisions. As I said, and several other people around me all agreed, Ferguson is the QB that deserves to be leading the charge.
Make no mistake, LR was winning and would have won this game whether Ferguson had played or not. The defense and special teams had this game in hand from the beginning.
But if LR has a chance to do the things that I know every Bear fan, every player, every Bear Coach, wants, we now have a chance to accomplish those things with Ferguson securely in the QB position.
Finally, bless be the time. Thank you, thank you, thank you to which ever coach made this decision.
