re: The second half....

Why did the offense get so damn conservative? Why did our defense suddenly forget to cover the tight end?

It was frustrating for sure; I was getting pissed off thinking that the Hogs were going to come back an win the game. But as others have stated, the conservative play calling made sense with us up by so much in the first half.

Aggressive offense has more potential for scoring but it comes with higher risk. We simply mitigated our risk in the 2nd half and it worked because we did not turn the ball over giving them additional opportunities to get back in the game.
