[quote author=Boston Card link=topic=12924.msg130767#msg130767 date=1443241432]Tough to say that there has been a ton of offensive ineptitude today.  28 points in 2 1/2 quarters.

I was referring to the two plays that preceded the blown call, in which the offense netted -2 yards.  But agree to disagree I suppose.

I understand that.  But in the course of 40+ plays, you are going to have a couple of negative ones.  Overall, though, it is hard to complain about the offense today, and there is a reason you get three downs to advance the ball.  Sometimes you will have a third and long, and we have the players to convert those downs (see third and 9 against SC last week).  But part of that depends on players beating the defenders one-on-one, which of course depends on the refs flagging blatant holds.
