What does it say about a team that can't finish top 15 in goals for and goals against in the same season?
It says they are a bad team.
If your only options are play stifling defense to a 9th place finish or play full bore offense to an 8th place finish, you're a fundamentally bad club.
Good teams don't have to sacrifice offense for defense or defense for offense. Bad teams usually have to pick one and hope it gets them somewhere.
