We won in spite of clear deficiencies on offense talent wise. We have three GOATs who mask that really really well. So because we won a Super Bowl we didn’t need to address the OT situation? No. They are important positions and we whiffed. Arguably we didn’t do great at addressing it this offseason either. We will continue to find ways of masking it but it’s fair to question if we did it effectively. I don’t know why you can’t say the same for WRs.
And it’s been a matter of missing on several big swings. But also, sorry, while you like to suggest we’ve thrown resources at this in every way we are easily on the bottom part of the league in terms of how much draft capital we pump into our offense.

The offense over the last 5 years has been the best in the game.
The defense has spent a good part of those last 5 years being a tire fire.
Where would YOU have us allocating the largest chunk of our draft capital, ace?
We clearly needed to fix the D. It appears we have largely done so. In the process we've seen some misfires on offense that will almost certainly sort themselves out by the end of the season and we'll STILL have a top 5 scoring unit. And if that's not the case, the amount of capital we've put into the D over the last several seasons will allow us to address the O this coming offseason.
This is how it works when you have limited capital. You attack areas that need to be attacked and then as the disparity between offense/defense starts to level off, you can be more even in how you approach the two.
Pretending like we should've thrown as much capital in the draft at the league's top ranked offense as we do one of it's worst ranked defenses is kinda silly...
