You call 25 points, "so-so," but there are only 5 teams out of 32 who average more than that per game. That is 15% of the league. The Redskins have to produce more than 85% of the league on offensive in order to be better than "so-so"?

You're right, it's not first to 25 that wins. However, you are saying more points would win. So, is it first to 35 that wins? Bottomline: if you can't win with 25 points, your defense isn't doing it's job -- for that game. Don't bring up the other games where the defense played well, in an effort to blame the offense for yesterday's loss.
Whatever, the offense doesn't play their plays in a vacuum - and the same for the defense. I don't want a math formula to figure out games. All I know was the offense had 2 chances at the end to win the game and didn't. There were already a few times this season that the defense stepped up - even in this game with the forced fumble. How do you throw a defense like that under the proverbial bus?

The expectations for the offense are so low and the defense too high. It's time for the offense to step up.
