Austin was quoted saying..

So unfortunately, the defense did not go from being stingy on points/yardage and just emphasize turnovers on top of that, but instead Austin's defense foregoes (disregards?) yardage/points for the sake of turnovers.

I remember that quote from him. I also remember what my exact thought was, this could be bad.
