GG Edinburgh. The turnover Gods were against us today. We dominated the stats but turned it over 4 times. I hope we meet again in the playoffs.
I just got a chance to watch the game. The turnovers were definitely key, but your stat comment is a little disingenuous. You outgained us 150-39 in the fourth quarter, after we were up by three touchdowns.
The difference in this game was our ability to contain Breakin' Ankles and your love of the screen pass.
We outgained you 244 yards to 71 in the first half, yet we trailed 16-10. We were up 10-6 with less than 1 minute to go in the half, 1st and 10 at your 32 and then the pick six makes it 13-10. We then fumble the kickoff and you kick a FG to make it 16-10. We completely dominated the first half. We should at least have had a FG to make it 13-6 or a TD to make it 17-6 at half. Yet we trailed 16-10. We then proceed to fumble our first two possessions of the second half that you turned into 14 points and that was pretty much the game.
I stand by my comment
We won by 24. All I'm saying is, man up a little and don't exclusively blame the sim. It's not like we scored the winning touchdown on a fluky fourth quarter play. We won by 24. That's four scores.
Maybe if you didn't throw screen passes 35 times a game and leave your HB out there to go one-on-one with LBs that just might be able to force a fumble or two you wouldn't have turned the ball over so much. I don't know. But I do know that I hate guys who blame the sim for 24 point losses.
BTW - your screen catching MVP averaged 2.7 yards per catch against us. Maybe that had something to do with the loss, too.
