Guys, he's not saying the offense is blameless. He's saying the defense NEEDS TO GET TURNOVERS. Yards allowed is just a stat, nothing more. Turnovers can be game changers. When a team spends more money on defense than offense, the defense needs to do more than keep it's yards-against down.
quit blaming the defense. The offense has to move the damned ball to keep the defense off of the field.Originally Posted by BlitzTo7
There you people go again. You think because someone criticizes the defense that we're also saying the offense is blameless. Not true at all. If anything, the front office gets the most blame for what's going on this season so far.
However, when a team spends most of it's money on defense, you can't expect a great offense. Turnovers are needed to win games, and for the last three seasons this defense hasn't been able to do that.
No I just think it's damned foolish to point the finger at the only bright spot on the team.
It's also the unit the team is throwing the most money at.
I would have cut the two players that are making the most money on that side of the ball... in order to keep some of the younger guys we let go...since we are OBVIOUSLY in rebuilding mode at this point. That would have given us some money to invest on the other side of the ball.
