I'm not going to defend the offence here, because the figures you noted speak for themselves. The offence though wasn't the grouping that was letting Henry run all over the field. The offence wasn't giving up 3rd down conversions left and right. While true, the offence couldn't sustain a drive to keep the Titans offence on the field, the defence clearly shit the bed the most here. They couldn't do anything. They had already given up a 9 minute TD drive before Smith and co. even had a chance to take the field in the 2nd half. It could been over half an hour since they'd been on the field. They aren't the first team that's lost rhythm after being off the field for so long. They also started to find their rhythm on those last 2 drives, their only two of the 4th quarter, but by that point the defence had irreparably screwed up.
