Maybe. But if they average 5 goals a match, while you get 2, it would be a good idea to play defense on them the entire match and try to hold them to under 3 goals. I think if they are a mecanum drive, it shouldn't be that hard to hold a team to under 3 goals. It is all about figuring out what gives your alliance the best chance at winning.
Several people have mentioned that the 'pushing' bots will need to catch the mecanum/manuverable bots. The problem with this is the defensive bot knows (or atleast should) where the offensive robot is going, diminishing a lot of the manuverable bot's advantage. Just meet the robot at the ball, where it is going to line up to score, by the tunnel or on the way to the tower and push it out of the way.
