I don't care what stats say about our offense. My eyes say that against good defenses we struggled mightily.
Confirmation bias. We have had some good-great performances against great defenses over the years. Both Arizona games, Minnesota, 1st Rams game, Bengals etc.
Furthermore, there is cognitive dissonance with that statement. Many many great offenses have struggled against our defense. Somehow that is perfectly acceptable and expected. However, if our offense struggles against a great defense - that is not ok.
You can't have it both ways. Either great offenses are allowed to struggle a bit against great defenses or they're not.
If the legion of boom is expected to dominate every offense like they do then a defense almost as good will have some success against our offense.
Lastly, just want to remind you that we have the worst interior line in football as per pro football focus. I could understand the hate more if Bevell was given the Rolls Royce to work with but him and Cable have not been given quite as many toys as the defense has and have got a lot of efficiency out of our offense.
