We attacked fourth/fifth rate German troops with overwhelming force ( look up "Ost battalions") and for the most part the D-day landings were a walkover. Only Omaha Beach proved to be a problem largely because of shitty planning (they failed to account for currents and most of the DD tanks sank on the way in leaving the troops ashore without armored support) and the terrain was largely in the defenders favor.
