Wow -- pretty much zilch from our front line. Maybe a couple of hurries, and was there a sack? Feely didn't get touched for the most part.
The result was that Phily scored 4 TD drives of 68 plus yards, and was cruising on their last drive until the Samuel pick. We needed more pressure. That's the bottom line. As good as our offense is, when the D gives up 28 points on full-field drives, its' going to be tough for the offense to get a rhythm.
Bottom line -- at the end of the day this was a conventional NFL game. We got outplayed a bit on offense/defense and on special teams, but turnovers made the difference. If you want to talk about Brady's greatness, the TD numbers and stuff is an easy measure. But this was a game where he was playing behind or close all game and didn't throw a pick. That's where the game was one -- just one turnover in that game and we lose.
