I would add that the D just gets tired after a while with the O not keeping the ball long enough. Today, I'm also pretty sure I saw them stop trying to tackle as much as everybody is trying the knock the ball out or strip it, because the D understandably has little faith in our O to get 2 TDs in 8 minutes or less, especially 5 minutes or less. This is not the first time I've seen this. They give up first downs, but at least they are trying to do something, unlike our O that just kind of melts out there.
