Ability to fight through adversity could make this season different
The theory of what it takes to win doesn’t seem like it should be complicated or hard to understand.
If you go out and score more points than the other team, then you win. If you don’t, you lose. The formula is simple. It’s clean. It’s one of the reasons people love sports.
But nothing that happens on a football field is ever as simple or as easy as it looks from home or the stands. Teams have to learn how to win. It’s a process that involves experiencing and overcoming specific situations. Through those experiences, teams build confidence and figure out how to stare down and overcome adversity.
Finding ways to fight through the fire is the only way to become a good team.
