And your point is? Offense was not the problem last year.

Ummm I think his point is that you said we should've drafted a DE or LB with our early picks....

...and we did

It was in the San Fran game. Five turnovers is too much to ask of any defense.

Very true

Only thing is our offense won us atleast 12 games last season, not to much to ask for the D to step up once in a while

No doubt, and I probably should have clarified I think the San Fran loss was a total team effort.

I wanted to point out the defense wasn't solely to blame.

And BTW: The 2011 draft included 5 defensive picks, and 1 offensive pick (Ingram)

Lining up a hurt FB at HB in the playoff game against Seattle after the 6th or 7th HB to get a carry late that season was a BIG problem. They had a chance to get a great back, Heisman Trophy winner, and a great guy late in the first round and they took it. It didn't pay off big last season, but he will be worthy of the choice.
