Yeah, that TOP is wild. Part of it is the D, but we aren't just going 3 and out on offense either. Our redzone (or on their side of the 50) definitely needs work.

We’re typically getting 1-2 additional possessions. I don’t think that’s enough.

We beat them. Last year in their place. When the playoffs were on the line.

In their place was with JJ. Max's 3 yards passing win was at the Bank.
