It's hard to be a great defense when your offense never let's you catch your breath before sending them back out there. We could do much worse. I know. I've lived through it.

The defense did have some issues, of course, and much of it did come at the hands of the offensive playcalling putting them in such poor situations as you accurately pointed out. All of the slow starts allowed opponents to lean more heavily on the run, so of course that would show up as bigger run totals. It makes perfect sense.
Down the stretch our defense looked markedly better, but then again, so did the offense. All in all, people can cherry pick and find both good and bad statistics to satisfy their needs. |
