I would note that travel and jet lag effect different people differently.
My wife can sleep on a plane (or almost anywhere); I almost never do.  So I'll be wiped when we travel (especially flying East).  OTOH, she may be fine the first day, then be somewhat out of it on the second or third.

I believe the team traveled yesterday.  So maybe some got a good night's rest, and maybe some didn't.  A 4pm Pacific Time start isn't that early, so maybe the time zone had little effect and they just had an off day.  Or maybe key players are effected; we don't know.  

You can't blame everything on jet lag, but you can't just dismiss it either.
