If your defense is ranked 120 our of 120 which is Dead last, what good does this do you. Michigan's offense is facingit's first true test of the season.

Are you saying having a good offense does scUm no good?

Are you that convinced they do?
If your Defense is dead last you better have a good offense. That said I'm not sold on Michigan's offense just yet. Let's see what they do in the Big Ten.

The Big 10 is going to run through Ann Arbor for a long time once they get a defense in place. They'll get their defense in shape eventually.

Yes I'm convinced that having a good offense benefits Michigan. Is this really a question?

Yes this is really a question. A great offense does it week in and week out. Not just against weak defenses. Michigan finally ran into a decent Defense today in MSU.

Hawkpredator was saying "he's not convinced that Michigan has a good offense this year". And he was asking you if you were convinced.
Color me convinced Michigan has one of the best offenses in the nation this year. If they had half a defense they'd be national championship contenders.

Yes I'm convinced they have a good offense. Their problem today is they aren't executing very well. Now it would be foolish to think that Michigan State doesn't have something to do with it, but it would be equally foolish to think they don't have a very good and very dangerous offense.

Michigan does one thing well. That's rush for yards. This isn't a well balanced offense. Denard Robinson is not passer.
This is a one-dimensional offense that is lead by one player...

That simply isn't true. Everything stems from the running game but they have a very potent passing game. They are actually pretty similar to Iowa in that regard.
They are throwing for about 240 yards per game, which places them in the top third in the NCAA. This isn't Airforce or Navy here, and it isn't Nebraska of the 80's and 90's.
Stats disagree but those are probably lying. He was third highest rated passer coming in. He obviously won't be anymore. I don't think any Michigan fan thought Denard would go all season without a game like this. He is still a sophomore. I think next week will tell me all I need to know about this team. If they do this again, they win 7 games max. If they come out and compete, there may be hope. Their defense is terrible. The worst part about that is that it isn't just talent, it's the fact they have no ******* clue what to do most of the time and when they do they don't have the talent. They are undisciplined and execute poorly. They won't win a game without scoring 40 points, guaranteed.

Wow, that's just a lil over exaggerated there. They scored 28 against a very average ND defense and 17 at home against MSU. Lighting up Bowling Green, UMass and Indiana does not impress me.

'the big 10 is going to run through AA for a long time once they get a defense in place'.
