That old canard about "defense wins games" is even more incorrect today than it ever was; defense allows the offense to win games. The fact of the matter is that in their ongoing quest to ruin the game, the coaches, operating more or less within the framework provided by the rules commitee, have devised offenses to which there is no real answer. To move the game back to where it should be, the first move should be a return to at least limited substitution, if not all the way to one-platoon football.
