One of the more annoying elements of the New England Patriots’ loss against the Houston Texans is that my game prediction was mostly correct. The defense would be regress and the offense would have its best game in weeks and score over 20 points. Well, I was right. The defense regressed and the Patriots had their best offensive outing in weeks scoring over 20 points. The only problem was that they didn’t win. A swing and a miss on that part.
Scoreboards are not always indicative of the game, though. Sometimes big point differentials disguise competitive games and small point differentials can trick you into thinking a game was close.
