Which Would You Rather Have?

[Schneed10]

I think you're better off with a shut-down D and a lousy O than the other way around. And I think it's far more likely to happen this year, too.

I don't think your team ends up very good in either scenario, so I'd rather take the one that's more enjoyable to watch. Just thinking back to 2006 when our defense was a seive, I could barely watch the team. I didn't even want our offense to score, I just wanted them to stay out on the field to keep our defense on the sidelines. But in 2004, when our D was dominant and our offense sucked, I had a great time watching each game.

Defensive games are exciting to me. Games that go 42-35 just feel like I'm watching Tecmo Super Bowl.
