The last sentence is important, and makes a lot of sense to your case.
My point is that besides a mistake or 2 on offense, are you really not going to expect some stops at times for Miami? If they kick the FG that's 24 pts they scored today + moved the ball all over the field at times.
Is the defense really impressing you? If we had any kind of defense at all, they'd have never let IND back into it, they'd never have blown leads of 17, 14, 10, etc. I agree that the offense needs more work, but in a game where you move the ball as well as today, what do you really want from them?
I can see if TB had a bad day, couldn't hit anyone. I'd agree if Moss couldn't get open like v. NYJ, or if Wes wasn't himself. I'd agree if Aiken didn't contribute, or if the o-line looked real bad. But that didn't happen today, at least not more than any other average game.
I respect your opinion, but in a short week where we didn't have as much time to prepare--I still think the offense did an alright job. It's the defense who is getting ripped apart, and doesn't provide too many good things.
Again, it doesn't matter how many yards we get, all that matters is if we score POINTS. What offense is better, one that scores 30 points a game on 300 yards or 25 points a game on 420 yards? Of course, the one that scores more points.
What is the point of driving 60+ yards into the redzone when you either turn the ball over or continually go for it on 4th down and come away with nothing?
