Germany mainly lost by losing the economics and resources games. A secondary factor was when Hitler started taking over strategic and tactical planning from the generals.
My take on the generals themselves is that they were at least not terrible.
Dont understand why you get downvoted, as I assume you mean that the generals wrwe not strategical and tactical terrible. Think most historians will agree that Hitlers direct involvement in the war was a growing issue in conducting the war. Also Hitler stayed in power by making sure that the levels below him were at each others throats and not able to challenge him directly. Nazi Germany was not technically on a war economy until Speer took over, and the amount of corruption was immens.

Economic and resources problems are part in parcel with a despot with a desire for absolute loyalty.
Wasn’t Blitzkrieg like a brilliant strategy at the time that devastated their opponents?
Germany lost by declaring war on the United States on December 11th 1941.
You mean the Red Army?
