I love how all 3 phases got in on the bad play to close the half.
First at the 2 minute warning on 2nd and 3 Watson bypasses the open RB who has 20 yards for free to fit it in downfield but misses the pass. His insistence on the tough play is getting him killed and hamstringing our offense. The rest of the NFL is thriving on easy completions to the RB. We traded a 3rd for the #2 pass catching RB in the NFL and we can't get him the ball because our QB won't check down.
Then our defense gets shredded with less than 2 minutes left to give up a length of the field TD drive.
Then when Watson produces a miracle to get us a FG try, our Kicker shanks it.
At least all 3 phases are contributing equally to the loss.
