I just get irritated when fans, usually those trying to make excuses for our pitiful offense, try and blame the other side of the ball for our losses, completely ignoring how badly we would be blown out of nearly every game without them.
Our offense is terrible. The defensive woes can be addressed with a straight face when the offense has been #1 for 3 straight years, bailing out a mediocre D.
Until then, just no.
The score was 24-7
Yes, the defense can absolutely be called out after blowing that lead. They were great for 3 Q's, but they didn't finish in the 4th.
You're saying people are making excuses for the offense by blaming the defense. That works both ways. After blowing a 24-7 lead I can easily say you're making excuses for the defense by blaming the offense. Going 3 and out on offense doesn't put up pts on the board for the other team.
