Back to the OP. Every year I find myself hanging on every play and feeling we are letting inferior teams hang with us. Many times the inferior team is throwing underneath our coverage and chinking away until we get a stop or they get a FG; and then we come in and end up punting after one or two series. Eventually, our talent and schemes take control and we walk out with a convincing victory, but with a huge sigh of relief after the first few series. Have no empirical data to support this, just my sense of what seems to happen against so many of the teams we EXPECT to dominate. Perhaps the OP shares this view.
