There was a team that went almost a full month without scoring an offensive TD; I think they went over 15 quarters with nothing but field goals from the offense. As I recall, they went 2-2 in that 4 game stretch because the drefense just stoned the other treams cold and scored a TD or two on its own.


That team went on to win the Super Bowl that year; it was the Baltimore Ravens. Really dominant defenses find ways to score if the offense can't

SC, I agree, The reason I say that is that our D is starting to give up point's unlike the Raven's D, and that is when finger pointing happen's, they are going to start looking for an excuse for why their surrending point's, and the first place they will look is the offense, injuries have defiently played a part in it no doubt, but even with those injuries our defense has played well enough to have us 9-0 with a little help from our offense, I do feel 1 of Gibb's greatest attributes as a coach is his ability to keep his team united ala the strike year in 87' I don't think we will see anything like the Giant's 5 or 6 year's ago but they will be thinking it.
