Don't blame the defense
#76
(11-01-2021, 07:17 PM)Go Cards Wrote: the defense sucked yesterday and so did the offense.

Yes the offense scored 31 points after being gift wrapped 3 turnovers, but should have scored 38 since one failed drive started on the 1 yard line.

Let's look at how our great offensive stars did against a poor Jets team.

Burrow threw for 259 yds........White threw for 405 yds
Mixon ran for a big 33 yds on 14 carries.......Carter 77yds on 15 carries
Chase 3 catches for 32 yards.........Jets RB 9-95 yds, WR Crowder 8-84

The Jets 4th best player in receiving stats had double Chase's stats even with 6-67. Not even going to mention the sure TD Chase dropped that had Higgins done  people would have their torches and pitchforks out already.

The entire team sucked and do not think just one side of the ball can be blamed.
Especially the side of the ball who hardly ever gets early draft picks on the Bengals.

Most all of our eggs have been put on the offensive side of the ball and they need to perform better. Yet O-line could be the issue still as much as some don't want to admit it.

 Nine out of the last ten 1st and 2nd round draft picks have gone to the offense. Bates being taken in the 2nd round of 2018 being the only defensive player taken that early in last 5 years.

Just think both sides stunk and deserve the blame heaped upon them equally.

Could add the call by ref and decision not to take the points by staff as well. It was just a debacle all the way around.

Let's be real here. No one is saying the offense played great or flawless or perfect or close to it. That said, they managed to score 31 points which at point had them at an 11 point lead late in the 4th QTR. To anyone saying that it's the offense that is primarily at fault that we lost are either stupid (or at least stupid when it comes to football) or have an agenda.

I don't think anyone can argue that the offense couldn't have played better on Sunday, but scoring 31 points more times than not is enough to win a game no matter the opponent. So, yes, the defense IS to blame, or, at least, PRIMARILY to blame.
