This year, the secret was out and teams learned how to exploit it. Our offense wasn’t THAT great last year, we just had incredible luck when it came to avoiding injuries

We had the no. 1 rushing offense in the league. Don't know where we are statistically speaking this year but I suspect we have one of, if not the worst offense in the league. Also the rest of the league was not lighting it up like they are this year, so that plays a part. 

Take away the defenses turnovers, sure, their ability to score, whatever. But take away our ability to move the ball and you get what we have today. I have a feeling we wouldn't be talking about the defenses regression if our scoring average was somewhere around 20-30 points a game.
