A problem with it seems to be it keeps the D on the field way to long, tiring them out and preventing our O from getting on the field.

The whole “tired” defense thing has been defunked over and over again. Its some of those buzzwords people eat up that “sound right.”

“They just wanted it more”

Well, I am not sure that "over and over again" is accurate. I believe that ONE person, Andrew Schechtman-Rook, did a statistical analysis on the subject.
However, IMHO, it ignored some intangibles.
Additionally, there are a substantial number of football "gurus" (not announcers) who are still proponents of "tired defense" theory.

BW as well, because he has often made the case for "tired" defense using the word "gassed" when our D was on the field a lot.
