As I watch a young soccer team play, I've often wondered "What does their coach's lesson plan for the SEASON look like and how are they executing it in this game?" You never know how much, or how little, planning goes into a team effort / leadership.
In the Titans' case, very little planning at the Season Big Picture level has been done. And it shows. We fall apart when the unexpected happens-- like last game. We didn't think we'd be short-handed for half a game. Mentally, we were thrown off our understanding of typical formations. Emotionally, we were shaken. Perhaps if we'd had SEASON GOALS or even goals for THAT GAME to focus on we could've pulled ourselves together and functioned more cohesively as a unit. Instead we were blown out 54-0. We managed to lift our spirits at half time but that's about all we could salvage.
Plan.
