The facts are the facts though.

And you know that running teams are always ranked lower in overall offensive standards because that is the nature of the beast. Teams can pass for 350 yards in a game and still get blown out. The yards become meaningless. Not to mention being ahead means keeping the ball on the ground eating up time. Like I said we will see where they are at the end of the season and then compare the numbers.

People often remember that Bears team as being offensively handicapped and that simply wasnt the case. Rex was better that year than people remember...in stretches. He was NFC offensive player of the month in september. He ended up throwing for over 3000 yards and 24 tds against 20 picks while playing in probably the worst place in the world for QB's in terms of the elements.

By the time the playoffs came around, the bears had lost many key defenders. They were no longer shutting teams down but rather outscoring them. The offense was explosive if not consistent.

Was it much better than this year's Titan offense? No...I wouldnt say that. But they were statisically better.
