As impressive as the offense gaining over 400 yds on Sunday the thing that stood out was how they were able to dominate the time of possession in the game. Even though they only managed to score 16 pts they were able to hold the ball for 37 minutes.
If they’re going to make a push for the playoffs this is the blueprint for success. The points will come if they manage to sustain drives and by keeping the ball the defense stays fresh.
It also puts more pressure on the opposing teams offense as their possessions become more important if they are getting fewer opportunities.
The only other game this year where the time of possession was this skewed was when the 49ers held the ball for 37 minutes against us.
yup for the first time in a long time we were in control of the game 💪
