How about they shouldn't have been in position to kick that field goal in the first place. But keep defending the mediocrity we all have seen year after year and expecting it to change.
What are you even talking about? Holding an NFL team to 12 points is not mediocrity. It's frankly elite defense. If you want to call the team mediocre, I don't disagree with you. But that is due to a poor performance by the offense the last two games and the special teams, really just Shaheed, in this game.
