So you have an entire quarter of the offense going 3 and out, and the defense playing a lot.

well, the Post just did an article on this today. In the first half, in the past five losses we've had the ball just slightly more than half the half. In the 3rd after 15 minutes rest they've held the ball an average of 6:36. That's not bad. Over the first 45 minutes the other team has only held the ball 2 minutes and 13 seconds longer than us.
