Penalties and getting no turnovers cost us the game.

Stupid penalties at crucial moments and not recovering a couple of fumbles and a couple of dropped interceptions cost us the game.

And not using enough clock on our last drive to tie the game and giving them almost 2 minutes left on the clock.

I knew we were fricked after we kicked the tying FG. I knew they were gonna march down the field for the winning FG or TD.

Yes, they were never going to stop them from scoring on the last drive. It was as obvious as could be.

There were like 30 things that, had they broken the other way, wouldve won us the game. penalities and lack of turnovers being 2 of them for sure. we flirted with a turnover ALL damn night but just couldn't get one.

I think we had 4 good opportunities at an interception but dropped them all. 2 from batted balls and 2 others. We likely win if we get 1 of those.

But reading the Rant, I found out that the season is over.

Yep, and they fumbled at least 3 times if I recall and we recovered none.

Yep, at least 3 fumbles, two passes hit our defenders in the hands, and two batted passes that should have been interceptions.

Not true. 80% completion and running the ball cost us the game. Period.

It was a close game. Honestly, if one thing breaks in our favor, the outcome could have been different. It didn't happen though, and I don't really want to harp on it.

Two penalties that were completely uncalled for because emotions can’t be controlled, the targeting was big but the game was lost at that point because the coach, not the players doesn’t have the killer instinct.

Also, 3 times in the red zone, 6pts!

And when you play a prevent defense with 3 rushing you never stop anything
