I agree, unless we start talking about Hartley, lol.

Of course, I guess it could be argued that having to kick a chip shot game winner, let's say for example against Atlanta, shouldn't even be a issue if the team had scored on other drives.

LOL, we have some issues.

Colston fumbled the ball in Saints territory. That's how.
Of course the defense was awful. It's easy to spew the "it's a team sport" stuff but Colston fumbled the ball in Saints territory. It doesn't get much easier for a team to win a game when the ball is quite literally handed to them on the defenses' side of the field.

and the redzone interception, 2 fieldgoals that would have been better as TD's didn't matter?
Had any 1 of those 3 been different then OT is a moot point and so is the 1 fumble from Colston

His teammates are right.

600 yards given up? There's your blame.

For whatever reason, we tend to split the series with the Falcons during a year. Would it have been nice to win? Of course. Does it make a difference that we lost? Not really. If we end up going 15-1, and winning the Super Bowl, would anyone care about this loss? Probably not. We moved the ball pretty much at will, but had some errors here and there. Things will get cleaned up. Time to focus on Cleveland. #WhoDat
