So, here's the deal. The New York Silverbacks aren't making the playoffs this season. Shocking, I know. But do you want to know something? The New York Silverbacks ARE making the playoffs next season. You can book it right now.
The season started rough for my Silverbacks. Close loss after close loss. Over and over again. But the team kept fighting. As the season wore on the wins started coming. The team, led by it's captains Sam Howitzer and Bubba Thumper, refused to give up. Howitzer ended up top 5 in QB rating, and wide receiver Jackson Kingston tied for the league lead with 15 receiving touchdowns. And let's not gloss over the fact that running back Ashley Owens broke the single season all purpose yards record. On defense the Silverbacks also had some fantastic standout performances. Rookies Hank Winchester and Dukburg QuakStak finished first and fifth, respectively, in tackles. And yours truly, Jack Banks, finished the season second in sacks.
So, as you can see, the pieces are there. Both the offensive and defensive side of the ball there are playmakers galore. Players win championships and this team has those players. Oh, and just one more stat for fun. The Silverbacks went 1-8 in one possession games. If the team gets anywhere near .500 in those games then my squad is a lock for the playoffs next season.
