The flip side to that was the Chiefs and Chargers games. We lost those and Baker and the O absolutely TORCHED those defenses.
Except when it mattered.
In hindsight, MAYBE you're right with the Chiefs game. Still, we put up 29 points and scored a TD in the 4th.
The Chargers game is not debatable, IMO. We put up 42 point, 22 of which occurred in the second half. Chargers hung 20'some on us in the 4th quarter. That's not an offense-problem.
My overall point was that the O started hot before major injuries started hitting early and often (Baker and the Oline, in particular). Injuries had started taking their toll by the time the D had finally found its footing.
