How is making a point starting an argument? You are an overgrown child, man. third down's are a meaningless statistic if you're keeping your opponent off the scoreboard. You can go 2-3 on third down on a single drive and not score. As long as you aren't giving up huge plays, you have a chance to get stops. It was a low scoring affair for the majority of the first three quarters before it got away. Our defense didn't have any rest the whole game. Did they play great? No. Did they give up a couple of ridiculous plays? Yes. But we kind of expect that, don't we? Likewise, we expect the offense to do something, which they emphatically did not do.

You want to know how much third down means? We were 8-13.... didn't feel like it, did it? Know why? Because we didn't do anything to follow up those conversions, just as was the case for the Bengals much of the time, only they made a couple big plays and we just never answered.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
