The fumble, the 2 4th down decisions really changed the game. Sure the fumble started us in the hole. But the 2- 4th down decisions closed it shut. Imagine being able to run out the half with 3 extra points (first 4th daown) and not letting them score that TD before half (2nd 4th down). It would have been much more of a boost than what we did.




I said the same yesterday.

Instead of going into half down 20-10, or even 20-14 in a best case scenario, we blow that possession and we don’t touch the ball again until it’s 30-7 after they score out of the half.

Just back breaking mistakes there from the coaches that combined with the opening kickoff disaster by a usually good player that became too much to overcome.
