Because I thought your revised thesis was that our big loss in Tbilly was the loss of a great punt coverage gunner who strips all return specialists of the ball for turnovers on every kick. Otherwise, i’d say thats a fluke stat. I had to recheck the box score but alas, he caught zero passes for zero total yards for LV in the game so, no, no evidence they found him to be a super receiving weapon. he did have two kick returns avg 20 yards each - which is respectable but hardly game changing.
We lost the game because OAK had 174 yards rushing while we had 85 and we let them convert ~50% on 3rd down. Tbilly didn’t affect those numbers. And we had 108 yards in penalties … cough … zebras … cough. That one fumble was huge, agree, but it doesn’t prove much about Tbilly imo.
