Things have been sorta the other way around for me. I'm the offensive coordinator at NIU and three games in my unit has been the weakest link.
I got shutout by Army 13-0, and pummeled by Kansas 13-37. The defense actually play above decent against Kansas. I thew two pick-6s in that game and struggled to move the ball so Kansas often had great field position to start their drives and the defense held them to FGs or stops on a lot of them.
My 3rd game I actually beat a ranked Wisconsin 24-17. One of Wisconsins TDs came on a pick 6 (I think i've thrown 7 picks in three games

). Take away that offense turnover and the defense played amazing overall against them. Their one touchdown drive came after a big passing play where it appear the D blitzed a safety and a receiver beat coverage and caught a pass over everyone's heads for a big gain. After that, Wisconsin couldn't score again.
I've been impressed watching the defensive unit play. If anything, they should be frustrated with me as the OC right now (and that Wisconsin win was sorely needed and I'm sure helped things a lot, lol).
This is on All-American with default sliders, BTW.
