There is something to be said about going down two goals on the road before halftime and clawing your way back into the match like FC Dallas did on Saturday in Colorado.
It is a fight and a hunger out of this group that hasn't been there in a long, long time. Typically, in this league, if you go down two goals on the road, the only way you're getting back in the game to escape with a point is through luck, red cards, and maybe even more luck.
Sure, FC Dallas had a bit of luck in their 3-3 result against the Rapids. I'd argue it was a little more magic in their attack than luck when you rewind the tape.
Still, this team is showing us early on that they have some growing pains to get through as a group, but they're going to be damn fun to watch once they're all on the same page.
Let's get into some key elements from Saturday's draw.
Still those defensive lapses
Admittingly, I had to play catch up on Saturday night with the first half. My wife's birthday was Saturday and we were out celebrating her. By the time I was on my way home it was already 2-0 Colorado. Without seeing a second of the action, my thoughts were probably a bit like yours, "what the hell is going on?"
