Again, I enjoy watching people argue about which unit is responsible for our record. I'm sure Bill Parcells would agree with me that if we had a losing record we probably had a losing offense, and losing defense and a losing special teams.

Discounting the USC game, because I don't think there's much point in analyzing it... Some thoughts on the losses:

Rutgers - Which unit stuck out as being the worst? If your vote is the defense, I'll stop reading your posts from here on out.

Louisville - Defense wasn't very good. Offense had 3 points until garbage time. We're not going to have the Steel Curtain here ever, so I'm going with the offense. Can't win with 3 points.

UConn - Offense had 1 bad half, 1 good half. Defense had 1 good half, 1 bad half. Kinda cancels out. Special Teams was terrible. Offense made the back breaking mistake, Defense couldn't help them by stopping one play run over and over. Flip a 3 sided coin.

USF - Defense was very bad, Special Teams wasn't good, Offense had started moving the ball at least but just made terrible mistakes at crucial times. I'll go with the defense to make everyone think I'm not picking sides.

Cincy - I didn't even watch much of the game thankfully. But the defense was certainly atrocious. The offense was bad. Special Teams I just assume was bad. Ok, I'll go with the defense again.

Pitt - Defense couldn't stop them. But bad Offense and bad Special Teams put us in a 10-0 hole right off the bat.

Other than my trending in the last few games, does it scream defense to you? If it does, then you've dug in your feet on this one.
