You can't put this all on either side of the ball

Again I disagree. 17 of the 23 points they scored in the first half were from turnovers we committed in our end of the field, and 6 of the points we scored in the first half were from turnovers our D forced. If our O had held up their end we should have scored at least 17 if not 21 and given up only 6. Also, yes our D sucked on their drive for a FG to end the half, but our O going 3 and out and only taking ~15 sec off the clock sure didn't help things.
