Defensive backfield looked lost most of the game, but managed to score the only touchdown the in the 2nd half.
Both sides of the ball made their claims for contributions and blame. 576 yards and 29 first downs is scary. But they also got several sacks and four interceptions. Four straight 3 and outs in the 2nd half against one of the worst defenses in the NFL is pretty glaring, and puts your defense in the hole big time.
Pretty unhealthy competition I'd say.
Yeah I can't defend the defense in the 4th quarter. They were just awful.
But at the same time the offense didn't help them either. Their first 1st down of second half was was with 5 minutes to go in the game. Then punted in 4 plays from that. Offense didn't have to have scoring drives, just get a few first downs to kill some clock, and they failed doing that.
