Mental mistakes lead to situations where bad calls could be made. I, personally, think Betts stepped out, but that went our way.
Obviously the call on the 2 was horrendous and it cost the Skins the game, but it really should have never come down to that. That's a bad team we played and a terrible offense and we gave up 36. If we needed to drop more into coverage tehy should have...that was horrendous play by the D backs that cost us this game as much as anything else.

Extremely well said jdlea.
Great effort today by a few guys, but as Gibbs says,'it's a team loss'. OL gets Portis thru different ball game. Secondary doesn't leave peeps wide open deep (with NO help from safety) different game. No offsides on EP different game, DL stops Alstott at the GL right up the middle ( I honestly don't think he got in, but angles were kinda inconclusive) different game. But hey this is the NFL and somedays you get more breaks than others. Bottom line we shouldn't have been in these positions in the first place.
