In football, a loss is a loss. And you aren't getting to the postseason with close losses vs blowout losses. You need wins.
True, a loss is a loss, and good coaches find ways to win close games.... yada yada yada. But the reason people talk about losses by 3 points, etc., is that they show that the team is close and not just getting blown out constantly. Although I know that's not the popular narrative around here.
