Not bad points overall, but this is not what I remember from the game (haven't been able to re-watch).

My recollection is that we did a decent job of getting pressure, but McCarron was just very good at avoiding it, throwing quickly, dumping off, throwing on the run, etc. I was left with the impression that he (and his receivers) played a heck of a game. Maybe I'm not remembering correctly.

I admit, I haven't rewatched either (too painful), and was watching in a bar, so maybe I'm misremembering myself.

I just know I felt like AJ had all day, and we didn't get a sack until late, late in the game. They also showed a reel on how well Richardson had stone-walled Mathieu all night on the blitz.

This. We should have sacked him on a number of occasions. I remember one of our (LBs, I think) falling off him twice.
