But the offense needs to close out games too.
The chargers game they had plenty of opportunities to close out the game on offense.
If they can run out the clock with the lead and play a good 4 minute drill they can win more.
Brady and a lot of other elite teams made a living doing it.
Thats something that needs to be stressed more by the coaches.
But more importantly, they need to learn how and make a habit of winning this way.
Well, Joe burrow is only one of three QBs to throw for 40+ tds and miss the playoffs. The others.. Marino and Brees. Pretty good company.
The other 26 seasons of 40+ TD seasons resulted in playoffs. So 90% of the time, you make the playoffs.
Some of those teams also had bad defenses, like Brees and manning.
