It does still feel like that, but I don't think that's much of a reflection on what happened at halftime.
One thing I would point out here is that one of the reasons the Redskins never get blown out is because if they are trailing by more than a TD at half, the defense typically gets together and puts an end to it. We gave up 20 first half points to the Eagles this year at home and 42 last year. They combined for what, ten points in the second half?
The defense put us out of those games early, but certainly came back to battle in the second half.
