Not really. You can always go back and say "if we converted that third down in the second quarter ..." But you know that isn't how it works. Often, one play at the end of the game can decide the game. If your opponent is driving to take the lead with a minute left and you drop an easy pick, you could have sealed the game. End of story. Just like a kicker who misses a FG as time is running out. Sure, there are probably one hundred other plays during the game you can point to, but those are washed away if it comes down to a final play/drive where someone messes up.
