Jasper showed some promise with their youth, but they also showed their weaknesses with lot of missed tackles, dropped passes and PENALTIES!! Jasper has got to develop some plays that a youthful quarterback can handle to pass the ball.

Lions have huge offensive line that made it difficult for Jasper to pick up the running back which was extra difficult with all the misdirection of the many different formation Lions ran..from the wing T to the nasty slot to pro-sets. Lions have 2 or 3 very good running backs..especially #5. First win for the Lions over the Dogs since the early 50s...time to get ready for BH now and good luck to the Lions.

Good game for the Dawgs...I dont think anyone is too disapointed..this was expected..Good night for Ellis..SE Texans will start to hear his name alot...144 yards rushing aint too bad...
