Our defense didn’t allow a single TD on any drive that didn’t start inside our own 25.

“what difference does it make if they get the ball on our 20 or theirs if we don’t really try to stop them until it gets to our 20 anyway?“

It’s the difference between winning and losing. Clearly.

It took a miracle catch in double coverage on 3rd and long to get them there.

Nobody should be blaming the defense at all. Take away the two red zone gifts…

If the defense can hold an opponent to 20 points or less, it usually means a win
