A different view...

I think our inability to score in the redzone to put this game out of reach prior to 1/2 time was the key after thinking about this a little bit. If we score a TD before the 1/2 we are up 10 and can pin the ears back on defense in the second 1/2. I don't know if I am correct in my assumption but if we get the ball in the endzone only 1 more time in lieu of a field goal we win that game.

I agree. If we could have come away with just one TD instead of a FG it would have been a totally different ballgame.

We were so good in the redzone last year especially in the 2nd half of the season. I believe you can gauge the comfort level of an offense by how they execute in the redzone. We looked lost and out of sync inside the 20 last night. That will change once everyone gets on the same page offensively.
