Nice drive. Typical FG.

b) why does this D have such a hard time getting off the field after the offense finally does something and puts points on the board?
On the play, you had a return blocker circle around and barring Lockette getting his head around and seeing him at the last moment (and probably thankfully he did) he was going to get absolutely blindsided on the play by a player that was nowhere near engaged with him and as such would have had no awareness and more importantly ability to protect himself from such a violent shot.
As an avid hockey fan, these blindside hits were common in hockey 15+ years ago. Lots of work went into cleaning those hits out of the game (think the kind of hits that effectively ended the career of Eric Lindros).
You can disagree with me all you want but the point of sports isn't to injure your opponent ... it's to beat them. It was an absolute BS hit. There's a reason you almost had a fight on the field ... the players know. The players ALWAYS know in those kind of situations.
