Not sure anyone was saying that Hap. I think we all understand the total points is what really counts 🙂 - I think? The point of this discussion was the points the Defense gave up, which, if my math is correct, was 16. That is a pretty good day.
My general concern about the Defense: It seems the Steelers made adjustments at half-time and figure out how to move the ball. But the Bills Defense did not make any counter moves. Maybe that was the time to go back to the zone coverage. It was obvious to all, because of the short routes and intentional quick release strategy of Big Ben, we weren't going to get much pressure on him, so stay back, keep them in front of you. But having said that, we were one pass interference call and a bobbled ball that fell into the receivers hands away from a win--and in close games, those plays get magnified.
Having said that, while not perfect, they still played well. The Defense did their part. It was the Offense and ST that contributed the most to this loss.
I'm not worried about our D. It looked improved this weekend.
