Our defense had a large part in our success this year, but an offense that was ranked #11 after being ranked #30 the previous year - WITH record breakers - makes your statement incorrect.

If you're going to put blame on Brunell's inability to move the ball in the playoffs, you might as well put the blame on Portis's inability to establish an effective running game, and Moss's inability to get open on every single play, and Cooley's inability to get open for the big plays in the playoffs. When your offense lives and dies by the running game and you only have one true deep threat receiver, no quarterback is going to be able to move the ball successfully.
