I know that's just how it is, but it's also why I constantly feel like our defense is overrated. They're a boom or bust type of defense and it's maddening sometimes.
I share your sentiments but it’s still a massive improvement over some of the hot garbage we’ve put on the field in recent seasons. That said, I really worry about our prospects come January.

Well at least the D held them to a fg. Not the worst outcome.

That was one of the best 1st halves this D has played all yr. Now hopefully the full shut down D comes out in the second half like in the past

Just tuck it and run, Jacoby. You had a 10+ yard gain.

Well that sucks. Alll that momentum and the drive ends in a FG. If Brissett had just tucked it and ran on his called pass play, we probably would've rode the momentum to a TD, but that play killed our momentum.

That Brisset should have been a TD. Hilton was wide open
