How can these pro defenses play this bad in the playoffs??????????????????

THis is unreal. I know these defenses arent great but with the game on the line these defenses cant even step it up to make a play for one drive......

Indy-----KC---------GB-------SF


Amazing.

The NFL is offense oriented with the calls that are made by the refs now days...

It's pretty clear...because the NFL rules dramatically favor the offense and the NFL is an offense-oriented league. Most of the top offenses are in the playoffs...

Besides the Indy / KC game, the other 3 games has shown some pretty solid defense. Seems that the only way there are big plays is when the plays breakdown ( bc of the defense) and the QB needs to improvise. All of these games have been fantastic.

Mostly true. I wouldn't say the other defenses have been fantastic though. SD held KC to 10 points, but I don't think they did much special. Dalton did a lot of the work. Indy game = 89 points; Eagles game still = 50 points. This game may go over. Mixed bag IMO

3 of 4 games went under. Nobody cracked 28 pts outside of the kc/Indy game.
