I would assume nothing. Did you listen to Flower chat the other day. He said we played 3 good quarters of defense and one bad one. Went on to say the Offfense really needs to get first downs when the defense is gassed...etc....

Flower is looking for excuses to keep Barry. Playoffs, a half competitive game where our D does not melt down.
