The game really wasn't that close in quarters 2-4: 31-6.
So much for Anarumo running a good defense, eh?
Rivers, who was averaging 245 yards per game and had more INTs than TDs, ended up with 371 passing yards, 3 TDs, and just 1 INT (great pick by Bates).
Phillips and Bell were terrible in coverage.
The DL gets hardly any pressure whatsoever. They need to try blitzing more.
About the only things I saw that were good were Higgins with the deep catch and Green finally getting some production (albeit primarily with slant routes).
So when we score, we got lucky. When they score, we suck. Got it.
