Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 5509462, member: 173"] The issue with viewing this as only an end of game thing is the game stats don’t support it. We gave up 237 yards in the first half which works out to 474 yards for a full game. And through three quarters we gave up 364 yards which equates to 485 yards for the game. We eventually gave up 503 yards. The defense gave up a lot of yards all game long - we really traded yards for eliminating big plays all game. Which makes sense when considering we had a double digit lead most of the game - giving up yards when you’ve got a two or more score lead isn’t the end of the world. I don’t think yards allowed from this game is much of a predictor of future performance - other than we’ll likely give up a lot of yards in very small increments if we get an early multi-score lead which we sustain all game again.
