the wonger need food said:
... you are exactly the type of "fan" that the organization is banking on. Other than zero turnovers and a few more first downs, this team did not really play any better than it did in the first 2 losses.
Cincinatti played down to Houston's level today and played their worst game of the year.
Well, let's analyze the first few games:
Week 1: @ Buffalo (31st in total offense, 7th in total defense)
Lost 7-22
Offense: 120 total net yards, 5 sacks, 5 turnovers
Defense: 316 total net yards, 1 sack, 0 turnovers
Week 2: Pittsburgh (6th in total offense, 19th in total defense)
Lost 7-27
Offense: 221 total yards, 8 sacks, 1 turnover
Defense: 388 total yards, 1 sack, 0 turnovers
Week 4: @ Cincinatti (3rd in total offense, 15th in total defense)
Lost 10-16
Offense: 254 total yards, 7 sacks, 1 (ahem) turnover
Defense: 371 total yards, 2 sacks, 0 turnovers
So against a tougher defense than Pittsburgh (on the road), the offense produced more points and more yards. Against a tougher offense than Pittsburgh (on the road), the defense gave up fewer points and fewer yards.
But you didn't see any difference between the weeks.
I get the feeling you'd rather lose pretty than win ugly.
