Declan Kelly's side were comfortably beaten by the All Ireland champions.
Offaly's 20 point loss to Dublin will serve as a benchmark going forward.
That's according to the Faithful County's manager Declan Kelly after he watched his side depart the Leinster Championship at the semi-final stage on Sunday.
Despite flashes of incisive play the likes of Keith O'Neill, who pointed three well taken scores, Offaly never looked like putting the All Ireland champions under pressure.
