That post really isn't about our D at all?
The fact that we

-couldn't get off the field
-allowed long drives
-allowed 3rd down conversions
-couldn't get much needed turnovers

All that screams poor starting position. Yes, our return game and particularly our "safe punt" were partially to blame. But imo, most of the blame goes to our D not stepping up.

The title of the post is

quote:

Fun with numbers – Georgia’s 2013 offense


What does that have to do with defense?

Also, the body of the post

quote:

Basically, outside the red zone, this was an offense that was quite effective when the rest of the team managed to stay out of its way. The problem was, as indicated by the starting field position and possessions per game stats, that didn’t happen as much as it needed to.

The most impressive part of that, of course, is how much Georgia was able to do on offense despite all the injuries. With the walking wounded hopefully returning to full strength, it lends support to the argument that the most important part of Hutson Mason’s role this season is to be a good game manager. Now if something can be done about that whole rest of the team staying out of the offense’s way thing…


ETA: Unless I'm missing your point and you're pointing out how bad the defense was because our offense was still pretty good.

Well yeah, but none of that was mentioned in the blog. I'm not talking crap, as our defense most certainly was pathetic...it just seems like the linked blog was more about offense.
