Until the offense starts driving the ball down field with consistency to get the Defense some rest, then its hard to judge the D fairly.

Yep. I see this as a problem. We rank middle of the pack in T.O.P., but still under 30 and it shows. Our run game needs a drastic improvement to get this up and get that defense some rest. I get we are a pass-heavy team, but the dink and dunk must be addressed also. Our play calling this year looks bland and it's clear how I feel about the OL.
