    We held them to 17 below their average in league play, so there's that

    Our D is fucking good. You stay on the field 70 percent of a game because your inept offense and stupid fucking coaches can't execute their way out of a fucking wet bag.

    Exactly like the seahawks. When Beverly's offense is 3 and out every drive, the defense shits the bed.

    You could also argue that they couldn't get off the field.

    You could, but I'm not talking about just this game. If you look at the season, and there is enough there to judge, our D is solid. But, it isn't a top all time D that is going to bail you out every game, and if you fuck around with enough three and outs and pitiful O performance for long enough, it will catch up to you and the D will have a game here or there where they falter. These guys can't be on their A+ game every fucking minute every fucking week to bail out that shitastic abomination Peterfuck calls an offense.

    Doesn't matter how good they are. That offense will drag them down no matter who we face.

    It's hard to call a defense good when they've only stopped one team in conference, drunk Sark's Trojans. RIP.

    Cal - 30 points, 28 first downs, 481 yards, 10-20 on 3rd
    USC - 12 points, 20 first downs, 346 yards, 1-13 on 3rd (crucial!)
    Oregon - 26 points, 21 first downs, 442 yards, 9-18 on 3rd
    Stanford - 30 points, 25 first downs, 478 yards, 6-14 on 3rd

    So they usually give up 30 points, 450 yards and allow about 50% on 3rd down.

    That isn't good. And people were actually calling them "great" after the Cal game. Boggles my mind. A good defense can win games in spite of an offense. An average defense will do enough to keep the scoreline respectable. This defense is average, with the potential to be good next year. They are not good yet.

    You want to see a good defense, go watch my Crimson Tide. That is a good defense.

    But then you'd be a fucking moron. The D got itself off the field a lot last night. Then they'd have to go right back on.
