over-simplification and bad argument. Defense gave up just 14 first downs and held 2/10 on 3rd down. That is how you turn it over 4 times and yet hold a 69-49 advantage in plays run.

Bottom line, if the offense does not turn the ball over yesterday its a blow out. Can anyone disagree with that statement.

I think that was my favorite stat from yesterday. The D was actually able to get off the field. There's plenty of room for improvement, but I can't remember the last time we were that successful at holding on third down.
