It's a balancing act.
This is where the balance is right now; a top five defense paired with what, despite all of the bitching, is a top five offense.
That's a pretty damned good job of building a championship caliber team.

Exactly. And in the period in question we've plowed a bunch of capital at rebuilding a defense. Which we've done to the tune of the best defense of the Reid era and almost certainly our best defense this century.
The balancing act has been tilted towards a defense that was really bad and suddenly really old. And now we can (and will) tilt it back towards the offense. Eventually we'll find equilibrium (he says with a team that has a top 5 offense and defense) and everyone can be happy again.
