There is a lot of pressure on these curling teams, perhaps more than they expect coming in. This year, neither rink handled it very well it seems.
I think you hit the nail on the head right there, both Homan and Koe are better curlers than they've shown. When you look at Martins at Vancouver Olympics and Jones at Sochi Olympics, both are so calm, cool and collected. Nothing seems to be able to fray them.

When you look at Homan in this Olympics, after the first game where she got hammered by South Korea and came back short to lose the game. After that game, she just seemed lost, cannot regain her form.
