You do realize that OT doesn't end after one series per team in which no one scores, right?
BTW, I'm not defending the mistakes made by the offense either. I'm just saying that overall, the defensive performance was worse. You can certainly pick out individual players on both sides of the ball that would qualify as turds in that game, but IMO...the D - as a group - earned the award.
You further realize that if a team does not score in OT that the opposing D has done their job, right?
I get it, you've got your heels dug in. We'll just disagree with the notion that a defense that gave up 0 points in 15 minutes of sudden death did not do their job.
