Oh, I wasn't making excuses about the injuries because you're right, most all teams have them throughout the year and have to endure them some how or other. My take is that we had way too many dropped passes wide open, and way too many drive-ending, boneheaded penalties and those are hard to overcome even if a team's stellar starting QB and tailback are in the game. I do however, feel that perhaps some of those stalled drives wouldn't have stalled, but one will never know. The mental part of the game is just so important and sometime I think we "armchairs" forget that.
