You never get over that! It is enough to make you walk out the room but it's like a drug. You play on because you're thinking somewhere down the line, lady-luck will even out the score. Coaches like Norbert are so good that you feel that they can still figure out a way to manage the turnovers and walk away with a win.
Sometimes, the turnover ratio can be so great. It can be difficult to overcome. I just tell a cat like Norby, "Hang in there and trust the system. It's 50-50 and it will eventuually break your way too". Sometimes you've just got to take the good games with the bad games.
One thing that I do know. The best thing to do is try and matriculate that field as fast as possible. The longer your offense is out on the field, the greater the chance of something happening. That's where we laugh and talk about the "Undisciplined teams" getting the ball stripped or illegal procedure which may stall a drive or give a drive new life. Tell Norbert hang in there and keep playing hard and he will be okay.

Hang in there you say,........no need for that type of talk youngfella, Norbert is one of the top coaches in the country in ALL styles of play,........I allmost still won the game (with 4 fumbles), that was due to my coaching, my team and ability to think quick and make adjustments as time is running,.......not to mention the best passer in the country under preasure, just think, I'm playing with miggle bigmen figures REG, and still scoring over 30 a game, I don't have any pretty customs or holders on my team, just wait till next year though, I will have grabbers and a full team of customs.
