Scored 30+ in 9 games.

29.3 ppg for the season, 2nd in the NFL

Meanwhile our defense was 31st in the NFL giving up 28.4 ppg.

By these numbers, the offense had plenty of weeks where they scored enough points. I don't get what your vendetta is with the offense. Sure it wasn't what we've seen when we were at our peak but our offense is better than most. However, you can't overlook how bad the defense has been not only this year but for a while now.

I love this post.

ST helped us to another loss as pointed out by Rail and they contributed on 2 others as well.

Do you know what they call that? ****ty football, undisciplined. Do you know whose fault that is?
