Has the defense passed the offense as a liability?

Which unit is worse?

The offense is mostly a joke, whether we blame the OC - Dak - WR communication - RB dilemma that’s not really a dilemma because Pollard should have the tilt in carries - Ridiculous presnap penalties that shouldn’t be happening or holding calls …

On the flip side the defense went from obvious strength to a sincere worry. At this rate, this defense is about to give up 1000 yards rushing over the course of 5 games. IMO it seems since Philly, Parsons just hasn’t made a consistent impact. I’m not pointing the finger at him, I’m guessing - maybe it’s others not staying on script? Has the shine on Quinn finally come off?

You know they said Parsons injured his groin against the Rams. I wonder if he has a sports hernia. I remember 20 years ago McNabb said he had an injured groin but it ended up being a sports hernia. Parsons hasn't been himself lately and I wonder if there is a bigger injury issue we don't know about.

But to answer the original question. I feel on any given day the offense can look great and unstoppable and then lay an egg. Same with the defense. We have the most Bipolar team in the NFL.

No, the offense put too much on the defense by not running the ball enough on their end while the defense defended the run all game.

So when it came down to the 4th quarter, the defense was tired and got split.

Smith is playing a lot better for the Giants than he did for Dallas.

I seriously doubt that this is true and if it is, it's only because he might be healthier.

He has 31 tackles and 1 TFL for the season, no forced fumbles, passes defensed, sacks or picks. He seems to be doing the same thing there that he did here at the end.

Offense still scored 28. Defense just had a bad game, offense sputtered all game. Plenty of season left regardless of the chicken little ms in here. This team wasn’t going undefeated.

IT ALWAYS HAPPENS THIS WAY, BOTH UNITS WON'T EVER BE GOOD AT THE SAME TIME

It was the fact that Green Bay ran more than we did.. that's why the defense was gassed out at the end.

If we have another game where we give up like 200 yards rushing, yea, I might be ready to change my tune to that.

It wasn't yet an obvious strength. We still couldn't stop the run. That was always worrisome.
