And that was the bulk of our teams rushing yards. For most of the game we gained 2 yards on first down. Not to mention the plethora of -2 yard ones. We were shut down imo.

you saw 2nd and 8 so much because it accounted for 24% of the 2nd down and yardage to go (2nd and 2 and 2nd and 6 were next often at 10% each) but there weren't really any telling trends from it.

The offense overcame a lot of 2nd downs and long on scoring drives and failed to score on some drives where we had 2nd and short.

In fact, 2nd and short happened 8 times and two of those were on a TD drive. 2nd and 10+ yards happened 6 times, two of those on TD drives.

FWIW we were in 2nd and short 28% of the time, 2nd and long 52% of the time and 2nd and more than 10 yards 20% of the time.

For the entire game the average was 2nd and 7.6, sounds bad. Between the two TD drives from the 2nd quarter til 4th, the average was 2nd and 8. I'd say that's telling except on the TD drives, the average was 2nd and 8.5.
