Imagine if we invested in offense what we did in defense

[Snake]

 

Imo this is why a defensive minded run first coaches are a dying breed. Me personally I use to love to watch a DE obliterate a QB but that's no more and a defense in the NFL today is more of a prevention unit than a dominant force. 

With that said if we took the reverse approach and drafted mostly offense I think this team would have been more bearable. Putting a priority on QB and OL this team with Brady would have put up numbers in the 30s. Yes we would have gotten out scored and out coached but there is something more bearable in losing 30 to 40 than losing 7-40.

Also the irony of building a defense light in the ass and a offense that can only score 17 points on a good day.

We would be a top 5 offense in total yards, but average in points scored…

I would be ok with that. Better than 7 points a game.

But our defense would be as bad as our offense. We would allow 40 plus a game…

Been saying this since the Rivera days. Then the first thing we did after he left and Rhule took over was dedicate an entire draft to defense

Lol true story…

Imagine spending multiple draft picks, free agent acquisitions, and trades on the defensive side and still can't stop 3rd and long's.

There is that.  We had just purged most of Hurney's follies, so we did not have much left on the roster.

I thought we had more on the roster heading into this year (but not enough), but based on the results, I'm not sure anymore.

We would still suck

Probably, just in a different way.  Or maybe in additional ways. 

A lot of people THINK they would get more satisfaction out of watching the team lose 38-33, but the reality is it would probably be 45-17.

Well we've already invested this years 2nd, 4th, 6th and 18m in salary cap into 20 turnovers so there is that.
