But not this time. We did not have any 3 and outs, though we did have some short drives that didn't use up clock because there was no real threat of a run game.

But the run defense was terrible from the opening drive, so this is not a case of a worn down defense getting run over in the 4th quarter. It was a full game of shit.

My post was not an assertion of what happened on the field on Sunday, but rather a hypothetical of what could happen in response to YDFL Commish's assertion that he never wants to hear about TOP being an excuse for poor play by the defense.
