All the offense had to do was score a TD at any point in the 2nd half and we win.
And all the defense had to do was not give up 14 points in a half. The defense that only averaged 17 pts a game. Gave up 17 in a half and two minutes. It goes both ways.
The defense was well rested in the first half but gave up an easy three to end the half. Can't use tired as an excuse for that. They went down the field like nothing in the first drive of the second half. Can't blame the offense for that. After they took the lead, offense sustained a very lengthy drive to tie it up. Defense came out and gave up what easily could have been the game winning field goal. Then came right back out and gave up the game winning field goal. So in my calculations you can blame the offense not moving the ball for 7 points if you want to. So instead of trying to blame the offense for what the defense is supposed to do, you should probably look at the team as a whole and face thathe both offense and defense could have done much better.
It wasnt like this was some elite offense they played.
