Damn offense making the defense tired again.

Btw, I never said the defense was causing the offense to suck. Just tired of the offense being blamed for the defensive performance.

I agree with you. The offense is trash and plays a part in wearing the defense out, but when the defense can't get off the field on third down from the outset of the game you cannot keep blaming the offense. Another big third down given up the first drive after halftime. 

To have a TOP so low both parties must be struggling. Our offense cannot sustain drives, but we have given up over 50% on third downs the past few weeks, which is on the defense.
