I don't disagree with you on that. But I voted in a knee-jerk gut reaction, and am listing my rationale.
I look at it like this, if a HB goes out and has 15 carries for say 45 yards, you'd say he's had a lousy game. But if on that 16th carry he breaks a 65 yd TD run, suddenly 16 for 110 and a TD looks good. Same applies to D, if you have a crappy game, but step up in the clutch and seal a win...it makes the overall effort look better.
SD had enough time with their weapons to make that last minute terribly interesting. Rey made a hell of a catch and put an end to it, crappy previous coverage notwithstanding, the coverage on the last snap was certainly an acceptable effort.
