OK, but in there you still see success when they ran when it wasn't expected.

It was a pointless run as time had run out, not part of a drive. It was done instead of throwing a hail mary...to a point short of the red zone.

Of course that gets into their first bout of terrible clock management, they started that drive with 1:10 on the clock and I think still had all their time outs. They managed to get just outside FG range when time expired but used no timeouts in the process, good management and they could probably have gotten into solid FG range, in retrospect that loss of three points was pretty huge. Never liked it when teams are satisfied with the first half, if you're not up by 30 you can probably use a couple more points.
