Our turnover margin is the mainreason we are 2-1. Plain and simple. It is hard to lose the turnover battle on a game by game basis and win those games. Any time you force a turnover it is a swing. Add the other's teams average score per drive and your own score per drive and that is the size of the swing. It we're both averaging 3 points per drive then we have a 6 point swing. Simplistic way to look at it for sure but it leads you down the right intellectual path to udnerstanding why turnovers are so important.
