We were up 17-6 with 11 minutes left… I wouldn’t blame that missed FG for this.

There's no one single error that sunk us, the FG is a big piece of things but even if we end regulation tied, do I see us winning that game? Not really. Player errors, especially around kicking in that wind, are the most forgivable. The coaching decisions, like a 10 man rush on 4th and 1? Those are the real headscratchers.

Bullshit. The 75 yard TD lost the game. Indiana couldn't really drive the ball. All they had were chunk yards from PA passes. It was a stupid blitz that cost us the game.

Well we had the lead after the 75 yard TD, so objectively, no- it didn't lose us the game.
