That would be a valid comment if the defense hadn't started the game by allowing two 10-plus play drives by Baltimore. And then closed the half by allowing a third.
Those three first half drives combined to take up 16 minutes in time of possession. The defense couldn't get itself off the field. Flacco had nearly 200 yards passing at halftime.
Sorry, but that's not on the offense.
The turnovers certainly helped turn the game after halftime, but Baltimore's offense had their way from the opening gun.
Total team loss. Bad on offense. Bad on defense.
