When Gregory forces a fumble...it's pure skill. When Seattle gets a scoring drive killing holding call deep inside Denver's territory...it's a fantastic job by the refs. (It's was bogus)
Pretty easy to rationalize every game when you view your team as the only ones who are "unlucky"....and the other is incapable of making great plays.

The delusions are strong.
"If we remove all our mistakes and bad luck, but they keep theirs, we win!"
Imagine actually thinking this is a legit argument. The loser of almost any NFL game can say that. Take away Seattle's errors and bad luck, and they probably win by 20+ points.
And against Houston, they were probably the luckier team. 4 first downs from penalties and numerous bail-out calls, and they still couldn't put good drives together. It just looked like two bad teams struggling.
