That's how parity in the NFL seems to work since there are many close games. I'm definitely not analyzing or breaking it down myself to demonstrate if the "a few plays from winning" statement is valid for other teams. But if it is accurate, then does it negate using the argument in favor of the head coach if the argument can be applied to the majority of coaches?
I hate the we're only a few plays away argument!! Like you say every team is a few plays away. It's just like the injury excuse. With very rare exceptions every team deals with multiple injuries every season.
