The Jets had an inferior starting QB (Palmer vs Sanchez) and inferior RB (Benson vs Shonn Greene). The defenses were about even (both top 5) and we were at home. We were favored (something you always bring up).
The Chargers were a poor playoff team. The Colts had no talent on D and had a practice squad RB that busted 150+ total yards on us. The Steelers had a terrible defense that somehow put the clamps on us, and they rotated 3rd and 4th string RBs.
We haven't been out-talented, we've been outcoached. 7 games is plenty of evidence.
Yep
I'm gonna look up our 2nd half scoring in playoff games again. I still bet it's among the worst in the league. I know after ML's first 5 playoff games we had like 13 points or something combined in all 5 2nd halves !
Or in other words totally out coached.
