People keep bashing the offense

We are also...

27th in rush yards allowed
27th in forced turnovers (which hurts the offense and TOP)
28th in opponent's 3rd down % (which hurts the offense and TOP)
Dead last in 3rd down conversions allowed

"bfine who do you think is better the O or the D"

"I think the D is better"

"prove it"

"The D does very well in the defensive categories that defenses are judged on and the offense does poorly in the categories that offenses are judged on"

"You just was to argue with no merit!!"
I think the D is better than the offense as well.

All that is being said by me, is that they need improvement in the above stated categories.

Offense is responsible for it's own problems... but not all of the defense's problems and not all of the TOP issues.

They have played poorly on 3rd down and "being gassed" is not the only reason why.

Not creating turnovers and being weak at run defense is not helping the team either.

Those issues on Defense are really there.  Cherry picking stats doesn't make it go away. 

How much more plain and simple can that be stated?

Okay.  Yes, the Defense is playing better than the Offense.  Kewl.
