I disagree.  We've definitely gotten worse on offense from the unit we saw at the tail end of last year to the unit we saw the first half of this season under Hunt.  That ship may right itself under Lester but the jury is still out. But, we've also been missing Broyld, Estime, and Hunt (who was visibly injured during the L'ville game and I'm certain that affected his performance in that game and ours on offense). 
 
Our defense may not statistically be the prettiest but it is keeping us in games in spite of being shorthanded in the secondary and having to stay on the field much longer than it ever should have during the first half of the season due to an (often 3 and out) up-tempo offense.  We are also forcing a lot of turnovers due to the style of defense we play and that seems to be something that is completely discounted in this thread as far as being part of the strategy of this defense.  It's by design.
 
That being said, outside of the L'ville game which got away from us in the second half, we are staying in games, in spite of the numerous injuries we have at key positions.  Last year, we got blown out of the water 3 times, each of which was far worse than the L'ville game.
