rigggggggghhtttt.......I see you Marvin
Heh. What I meant was everyone was a little bit at fault.
-AJM played like a young dude with promise. He did some good things, got away with a couple poor decisions, missed some open guys, and didn't have the command of the offense to check into or out of a few plays.
-AJ Green was great in the first half, but seemed to quit on some routes in the second half when things weren't going well.
-Hue was bold in the first half, and got conservative in the second.
-The defense allowed 17 second half points all by themselves, before giving up the final 3 in overtime.
-Nuge was clutch on the 50 yarder, but blew that early field goal. We didn't flip field position well enough.
...In the end, I think each component played well enough to win, but not well enough to overcome all of the other "pretty good" play.
I don't think there's enough separation between these teams for us to feel like we "should" have kicked their ass, in prime time, in Denver... But we sure could have.
