"It's a lot easier to play on defense as a young player than it is offense," O'Leary said. "On defense, your athletic ability takes over. On offense, there's reads and timing and all that stuff, and it takes a lot more time to gel, especially when you have that much inexperience out there."

Interesting comment from article on O'Leary today that applies anywhere.
