Weak field position AGAIN after handing them back a 2 & out.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Defense did its job, time for the Offence to do its. God I hate our return game. Do they ever break one to give us good field position?

I think Lulay needs to be sat down for a series.

If we lose this game, blame falls completely on the Offence.

Yup, this is at least a FG and the lead barring a turnover.

The only thing that would currently make this game worse is if Rod Black somehow took over at PBP.
MABEY!

We've moved the ball a whopping 16 yards so far in this half.
