Yes, they could have been better. But football comes down to which team is putting themselves in the best situations consistently. Defense and offense have to work in unison.

I guarantee if we had Lou's defenses but they were on the field all game because the offense sucked, his defenses would not look so good. Look at how bad his defense was his first year for instance.

Time of possession was only lopsided in 2 of Zimmer's playoff games. 2012 and 2014. 2012 was only a 6 pt loss. 2014 the entire offense was injured. Zimmer's problems were that his defense couldn't stop the run, couldn't sack the quarterback and couldn't get turnovers. You can't have all three of those things not happening on your defense in the biggest games of the season.
