Yeah, he misunderstood bad lol.
I see a few people downing NE because of the Whiteville game. They don't know that Whiteville is really, really good. And then there's the West bias. It's no secret that the West has a leg up on the east. But good Lord, they think that it means they're unbeatable. With that being said, this will obviously be the best defense the Eagles will see. I haven't watched a single play from Monroe, but it does look like the playoffs defense hasn't been as stout as the regular season defense. But idk how those playoff points against them have been scored. Could have been kick returns, fumble returns, int returns, or whatever. Just seems like better competition has had better success scoring than those from the regular season. And once things NE can do is score . Again, I say all of this with no knowledge of Monroe other than what I see from their schedule.
Bottom line is, I'm picking NE. Everything that's being said was also said about East Duplin.
