Yeah, I'm not suggesting the offense "failed". They did leave some points on the field, regardless of the strength of the opposing defense.

Admittedly, I was feeding children and getting them hustled about to get to bed early so my focus was divided. I had my ear-bud in and was listening to the broadcast but wasn't always able to see the play.
But I think ultimately we're all extremely spoiled at this point. An 'average' offense is gonna leave 10 points on the field every damn week....if they're lucky.
I think there's a margin of acceptable error that, if we were outside of, it wasn't by as much as is being lamented.
