It is crazy how little plays make all the difference, too.

Down two scores late in the fourth, with things looking bleak, I thought that Fran Brown was doing a poor job with clock management.  We had something like a 3rd and 10, and it looked like JRS should have drawn a pass interference flag, but didn't get the call.  So it's 4th and long, and Angeli hits him for like a ~60 yard TD pass, with 5:42 remaining.

Let's just say we get the first down, but have to run another 1:35 getting a TD.  Maybe we aren't in a position to get the go-ahead score at the end.  Instead, we were able to play straight up since we scored quickly, and save the timeouts [which, given how things have unfolded the first two games with how we've had to burn through timeouts when we mismanage the play clock, was a miracle that we had all three in the 2nd half].

But to your  point, you have to give our players credit.  They could have quit.  They didn't.  They showed grit, when it didn't appear to be our day.
