Very naïve analysis. Our offense had 3 and out after 3 and out with but 21 min TOP. 305 yards total offense, much of it after down by 3 scores. Couldn't get it in the end zone from the 1 yard line; it goes on and on. Put the D in bad field position and wore them out. Yes the D stupidly played man with the DB backs to the play while Murray ran right through them, again and again. Without a passing threat. And frequently couldn't get themselves off the field. But it was very much a team loss - and a coaching loss.

Definitely on the offense as well.

Our final 4 drives all made it deep into Cat territory.

Turnover on downs at the 1
Field Goal
Touchdown
Turnover on downs in the red zone

We need to score when we get the chance. This year’s offense has been much better at that.
 
I agree the game is on the defense. They key will be containing the QB and forcing turnovers. If that can happen, the offense is consistent enough to score what we need to win, in my opinion. If it becomes a shootout because we can't stop them, they have the advantage because of the offensive style. I think the offense needs to show up of course, and be more consistent than last year (which they seem to be overall this year). A good showing with both will be a solid victory. If one or the other falter, will be a nail biter until the end. We also need steady special team play. I hate cat week...

oh, and an ellipse, "You can use it for omission or hesitation". Simple as that. And I went past 3rd grade.

All right. There’s a few other posters around here who I’m not sure passed 3rd grade though.

The proper English phrase is "There ARE a few other...." There's is the contracted form of the phrase "there is", and when coupled with the plural of the noun "poster(s)", is incorrect in its usage.

I learned that in 4th grade. 8-)

Remind me again how many points the offense scored? :? :?

See, man....the LAST thing you want to do around here is become the language Nazi. :lol:

Just like in the movie Frozen...."Let it go.....Let it go...."
 
Blame on both sides of the ball for the Griz last Brawl.

Offense failed to execute enough.

Defense was undisciplined (got out of their gaps repeatedly, and gave up their assignment on the 4th and short at the end of the game when they abandoned their pass responsibility... )
