OFFENSE WINS GAMES DEFENSE WIN CHAMPIONSHIP

[Bretsky]

Fact or Fallacy ?

And how does that apply to this team ?

I didn't see the Chiefs loss coming but was painfully evident is we couldn't get a stop to a pathetic offense when we needed to. That Chief OL is not that good but our DL was worse. I know it was a road game but I didn't see that coming

I already was afraid and though this team was very vulunerable to a team with a real offense and average defense...such as the Giants or Saints...or the Patriots and Steelers,

I'd say today I am more afraid.

terrible game today...on BOTH sides of the ball AND from the sidelines. other than cobb, grant, and masthay, the Packers SUCKED!

for our team it all hangs on the O.

[pbmax]

Fallacy. Go look up the ranks of the last 10 Super Bowl winners. All better offense than D. Differential is the key.

[Deputy Nutz]

No turnovers on defense, and the offense fell apart. Rodgers worst game this season, accuracy wasn't there. Offensive line was make shift crummy.

Defense really did well in the redzone.

wrs couldn't get open. rodgers had time on most plays. very disappointed in the O today.

yes it did but it failed otherwise. they held the ball a lot more than the Packers did. didn't give up many points though.

Question:

Had some of the drops been catches, would the complexion of the game changed? I.e.: how significant were the drops?

Would have been two more tries at FGs depending on which catches you are talking about.

I think so. Those drops were drive killers. So instead we go 3 and out and we never get any rhythm going at all. I know a lot of folks are bitching about the defense but we were only down 6-0 at the half. Had our offense been mediocre I think we win this game.

[George Cumby]

Thanks PB, Pugger.

So at least a couple of drive killing drops which cost the Pack points.

Hmmmmn.

IMO that first drop by Driver...when the tone of the game was still getting set........was HUGE

[George Cumby]

So WTF is with the lack of focus?

This sums it up perfectly. Anyone saying the D allowed long drives has to point to the offense doing nothing and making the defense play most of the game. Giving up 19 is a blowout win any other day.

Im more scared but in a way i feel they needed a reality check. No more endefeated talk. They can now rest some guys who are banged up. This loss can be a big motivator because it was embarassing as hell.

The O-line needs to get healthy for january.

Ravens elite D is getting smoked.
Chicago's good D got worked.
Jets D got strafed.
