Ok, need some football knowledge.

About this time of year we start hearing about how our O and D lines are performing. The bugaboo to all this is that we only get to hear how they're performing against each other.

If the Oline handles the Dline, is that because the Oline is good? or the Dline stinks royally?

If the Dline is amazing, does that mean we have something, or that Kramer is using karate on children?

In soccer, any decent player should score on a penalty kick, it's not a reflection on the goalie, really.

In baseball, a decent hitter still strikes out a lot, no reflection.

So here's the question. If two linemen have equal talent, does the game basically favor one side of the ball or another?
