It's must easier to justfy unspectacular performance if the overall product doesn't ultimately disappoint.
That's all I was pointing out.

Maybe but when we made the playoffs in 2005 with a 10-6 record all I heard was people slamming our offense even though we were 11th in ypg and 13th in ppg. They played bad in the playoffs but late in the regular season they clicked to help secure a playoff spot. It got so bad Gibbs gave the playcalling over to Al Saunders (which imo was the worst move Gibbs made in his comeback).
If the Skins made the playoffs at 11-5 last season with ranks of 19 in ypg and 28 in ppg and the offense looked bad it would of been slammed even worse imo. I dont care if the Skins went 16-0 last year if we only scored 16 ppg for the season id say our offense was terrible.
