Why didn't the defense help out by forcing the Niners to make mistakes? I'm going to have to take a really long break from any NFL coverage. All it does is piss me off even more.

I've avoided a lot of the coverage since the game ended, but what I've noticed is that yeah, the offense is taking the blunt of the blame with very little being cast on the defense. The general thought is that the offense should have done more.

I'm sorry, but the offense put up 24 points and 477 yards on the #4 defense in the NFL, plus ruled time of possession by almost 5 minutes. The defense has to be able to do something to keep the other team out of the endzone when the offense does all of that.
