Because Hughes just couldn't get out of his own goddamn way. My memory is that he was pretty much singularly responsible for 3 TDs that day.
You just can't have that. I'm not even sure I agree completely that you need to avoid average players - average players are fine if they're playing average football.
But you can't have guys out there tripping over their feet on every drive like the Chiefs had that day. That was a total debacle.

Average players are fine. You need enough good players around them. Rising tides and ships and all.
We just have had absolute glaring holes on the defense since....2015 or so.
