Were the Germans really that good?

[Chuck10mtn]

My opinions of Rommel are not taken from film,but from having read his book The Rommel Papers. His keen insight into what would happen after the allies got airsuperiority, and living it in the Afrikan campaign showed he knew what would happen after the allies landed on D-day. As far as Russian Campaign goes,he wanted to attack russia after finishing off the British in north Afrika and taking the oil fields in the south from the Middle East.
Once the Germans started to Moscow and failded it gave the Russians hope that the Germans could be defeated. Taking Moscow would of left a lot of troops with no where to go. A army that is not mobile against a army that is will lose everytime, again a point that Rommel found out in north Afrika.
I'm really starting to like this post a lot of Ideas have been tossed out that you would never think of.
