True. And I realize they both go hand in hand, but it's disheartening and a bit deceiving to put up stout defensive numbers only to give up a gut wrenching touchdown with little time left on the clock.
Ironically one of the worst of the calls of the year, in my opinion, happened at the end of the Chargers game when we allow them to chew so much time off the clock instead of simply letting them score when they had the ball at the goal line.
I won't be missing Greg Blache, that's for sure.
