Gita - Chapter 1, Verse 10

aparyāptaṁ tadasmākaṁ
balaṁ bhīṣmābhirakṣitam
paryāptaṁ tvidam eteṣhāṁ
balaṁ bhīmābhirakṣitam

Meaning :

"Fully protected by Bhishma, our army is undefeatable ; while their army, guarded by Bhima, is easy to conquer."

Comment :

It is considered that each army shall have a powerful savior, who would help them bail out of any situation. Duryodhana considers Bhishma as the savior from their side while degrades Bhima saying indirectly that, he has no war experience. 

Here Duryodhana shows his jealousy towards Bhima. They had rivalry between them ever since their childhood & the Kauravas had hatched a lot of plans to kill Bhima, but miserably failed in it. Duryodhana also knows if he is getting killed in war, then it would be by Bhima's hands. Still, he puts all his confidence in Bhishma, the Supreme Commander and expects victory of Kaurava's. 

We also do such things in our own mind, by putting all our confidence into the main & important strengths we have to take over our weaknesses.
