So the D threw 3 INTs against ten including the one in OT to set up the game losing FG?
As bad as your D was playing the O is allowed to score and your O was not scoring.
In specific Snachez made a huge 3rd down throw to Cotch that set up a punt that pinned at SD at their 4, that doesn't look sexy in the boxscore but w/o that throw we are punting from our 23 instead of from our 45. On SD's next possession we picked off Rivers and set up our 1st TD, a tremdnous thorw by sanchez as he was getting hammered by an SD defender. In the boxscore it's a 2 yard TD- no big deal but he hung in there taking as huge shot and made a great throw to give us a 10-7 lead. If we kick the FG we are down 7-6,m that was a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE swing in that game.
Another huge play was a 3rd and 4 to Cotch, he placed the ball where only Cotch could catch it. Any other position and the ball is picked. That 3rd down conversion came one play before Greene's 47 yd TD run to break it open.
Boxscores and stats tell us alot but it doesn't give us the whole story. I think he played better in SD than Indy though stats tell us otherwise.
Henne did have 3 INTs that game didn't he? Down 24-6 b/c the defense can't stop anyone is why they lost. Sure the INT made it easier for the Titans to win, I won't deny that. Sanchez throws an INT against ATL in Week 15 as the Jets had 1:32 to drive and kick a FG. It happens.
I have never discounted the little things Sanchez had done throughout the year. I also don't claim to have since all of the Jets plays like you have. Swings or not, a 3 pt lead is a 3 pt lead. The defense won that game.
