They didn't have to rely on a dumbass fumble. They didn't need a miracle. they didn't inch one out, by being scrappy but determined. They just... Looked like a professional football team that schemed to put their talented players in a position to win a game. Something I haven't seen Haley do. Ever.
Why would the previous regime SCHEME to punish a blitz when the QB simply couldn't do it?
