So acting like the offense had the game wrapped up until the stupid defense screwed it up isn't accurate to what actually went down.

The offense screwed the pooch for 3.5 quarters while the defense pitched a heroic effort to keep us in the game, then when the offense finally stepped up, the defense wet the bed. But again. The offense wouldn't have had a chance if the defense hadn't made a heroic effort for 95% of the game.

So we agree that it was the defense that kept the game close, not the play of McCarron.

That was my original point when some one gave AJ credit for "playing well enough to win".
