The other TOs were by JC and on a reasonable challenge of the Betts fumble. That was not the difference maker today, IMO, and I'm surprised at the play it's getting.
Cooley's false start. Westbrook's romping on our Taylor-less secondary. And the pathetic goal line series. That was why we lost. It would have been nice to have the TOs, don't get me wrong. But lots more went wrong than that.

He should never have needed to call a TO to think about kicking. We're down by the goal line, it's 3rd and 1, Gibbs/Saunders need to think 1 play ahead and know what you're gonna do if they don't get the 1st down. We're paying them $7M combined a year and they need that much time to run a routine FG? Waste a TO then kick anyway?? Joke.
