My DVR ran out so I missed everything past the first OT FG attempt. Watched the highlights.
I agree that JJo may be our defense's most important player. Anyone would have struggles against Calvin Johnson and Ball didn't do that badly given what we would have expected from him.
I think it is worth noting that the Jaguars and Lions are two of the most physical teams in the NFL and to play 10 quarters against them in five days is a tough grind. What you take away is that these are the sort of games that the Oilers and even some of the recent Texans ballclubs would have lost. The Texans are still good enough to win games they ought to lose. That's the mark of a champion.
I just hope they have enough healthy bodies left, particularly on defense, going into the final weeks of the season.
