The first and last turnovers were the killers though. You can't get the ball in the red zone and not score. Happened twice, difference in the game and you can't blame the defense for that. Especially when you have a QB that is supposed to be one of the best in the league and a TE you just paid huge money to keep a year ago.

All true.

NFL games are close. You can’t sleep on a lead. Just look at all the comebacks the last couple years. Turnovers will kill you, and the offense had one at a critical time. That isn’t the defenses fault.
