Time of Possession (not that it always means something, but my defense was out there way too much)
38:52 to 21:08
Flags (this head official has always been harsh on the team, but this was exceptional, also they declined a few)
4-30 yds sf
8-59 yds la
the flag thing completely ruled my day.
4........FOUR......OFFSIDES.
One of them cost us getting off the field, and a sack by Littleton, who also happen to be the guy encroaching.
Another, and perhaps the cruelest moment of the day, was by our special teams unit that had just collected a turnover.
Whitworth for 2. Allen for 1.
The holding call on the Natson return stifled us.
0 for 9 on 3rd downs
0 for 4 on 4th downs.
None of it hurt as bad as the Henderson botch.
From my seat it did look like the pitch was behind the kid, but the tv replay doesn't support that much.
In hindsight, as this OL group fails to move folks around going for it on 4th downs may be behind us.
Had we taken the 3 points in a couple of scenarios we might well have trailed by a TD at the end, and the energy and play calling would have been rebalanced.
