There is a maddeningly thin margin for error in the NFL playoffs. All the work a team has done since April—every route run in practice, every bench press in the gym and every hour in the film room—comes down to one game.
There's extra intensity attached to each play and decision in the pressure-packed moments. And that heightened focus gives us plenty to choose from when looking back with the benefit of hindsight and assessing where each losing team went wrong.
In some instances, those missteps will be painfully yet brutally obvious. Just ask Marcus Williams or Pharoh Cooper.
