Yep, this is it. Redzone offence was really poor in the playoffs.
The Raiders were only in the game due to our redzone mishaps.
We win yesterday with better play in the redzone.
When you stack up the offence in the playoffs... our highest tally was 27 points. I know that's in part just playoff football, but the offence did not bring us to this Superbowl no matter how you slice it. We gave Burrow a championship defence this postseason, and the OL negated it. I also thought Burrow himself wasn't as big a factor in the playoffs as you'd like, but OL issues... his 2nd year.... Not saying he was a big issue, just that he didn't take over any games like you'd hope.
Here's a question, do we even win a playoff game if the defence is 5-10% less good? Our offence leaned on the defence more than I'd like.... considering they entered the playoffs absolutely flying.
