In Tijuana, it has been a rough season to say the least. We came in expecting to be much better than we ended up being since we didn’t have many call ups. Our defense yet again this season did dominate and do pretty well all things considering, keeping most of our games close and not allowing many big score games. But really the real flaw to our team this year has been two things, our passing game is god awful, and for some reason this season we could not win any home games.
First, the passing game. We had all 3 of our WRs called up last season and it really hurt the offense greatly. Mike Boss just struggled to lead the offense with an entirely new and growing receiving core, and it led to us stalling on many drives or only coming away with a field goal on most drives. Secondly, we got extremely unlucky at home. Everyone knows that the home team almost always has the technical advantage of winning because of HFA, but this season, HFA did not apply in Tijuana. We lost nearly every home game we played. Luckily, in turn, we actually beat a lot of teams on the road. Making us a kind of Road Warrior team.
Now we have secured our spot in the playoffs this season, but we are going to be by far the worst team record wise out of the 4 and we are going to potentially be facing 2 10+ win teams. On the upside though is we seem to do really well on the road this season. So who knows, maybe not getting HFA will work out for Tijuana in the end, and they can make their way to the championship and hopefully win it.
