There were other issues obviously. They played some better defenses in the back half of the year (but also did really poorly against some bad defenses too). A lot of Yarnell in the without Taylor sample too. Obviously teams started adjusting to Eli as well. Just thought the difference from play No. 12 against Cal and onward was pretty stark.
