He's got a point if you look at the fifth drive and the call gets made for PI.  There's an additional four point.  The sixth drive had the three penalities and the TD called back.  That falls differently and you're now looking at 11 points left on the field.


Some are having an issue with "let the foot off offensively" and that may just be the terminology.  They certainly took the air out starting in the second quarter and went with a more methodical approach.  Even though it only resulted in a total of three points the 12 minutes taken off of the clock in the last drive of the first half and the first drive of the second dictated a lot in that game.  the seven minute drive to end the first half...game was essentially over.


There's a distinct different in top of possession per drive in the second half as compared to the first.  The offense was still moving the ball, but the methodology was certainly different.
