They were off last week too. I'm confused with those top rated defenses. Even the Seahawks with their highly rated defense wasn't doing much stopping.

Because most of the better defenses today, aren't as good as the better defenses of yesteryear (both in key area strength, and the fact that the offensives have better rules in their now).

So because of this, teams like Houston, Frisco, Denver, Baltimore (?) and Seattle can fatten up against most of the scheduled opposition. However, when they play elite offensive teams (like in the playoffs), they come back to earth and look more normal.

Truly dominant defensive teams, that can maul you with the DLine or strong Middle or Outside Linebackers, can shut you out on a good day. In today's NFL, so many good defense, are good in the secondary, or it's a give and take. Even the Giants, who have a great DLine, are/were inconsistent, cause their secondary sucked. And even their vaunted Dline was highly inconsistent this year.

So as you guys were saying, in today's NFL, no really good teams (are you listening Rivera, Gettleman and Richardson) is going to spend the bulk of their money on their defense.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I get what you are saying. I'm just saying we made it to the win, we should have a bit of class and not dogpile on the QB because his stat line wasn't great. His stat lines weren't great for almost his entire pro career, but this time, we got a win. Give him a breather.  The team cleared the bar. In the end, that's all that matters. Do it enough times and well, good things happen.  We've shat the bed enough times with good-ish QB play. It's not like we've been regularly to the playoffs even with our best performing QBs over the years. Heck, Matt Stafford was a helluva QB in Detroit for a long time with nothing to show for it. Steve Bartowski was a great QB back in the day, but in 20 years of watching I saw one playoff game for the Falcons. Heck, even Dan Marino spent most of his illustrious career on a lousy Dolphins team.  And yet, Tampa's first Superbowl ring was with the esteemed Trent Dilfer at the helm. Sometimes it goes like that.

      I don't care what they tell me. Its what they actually do that matters. Coaches and GM's say crap all the time to keep fan interest. They are always trying to sell you something.

      But you have to separate the 2 things in order to move forward.  Its okay to enjoy winning and its also okay to be critical of what is happening.  Coaches do it why cant we?   Also they have to be thinking next off season, next year all in real time.  They are applying what is working, where help is needed and how to get better and make plans for that.   I am weirdly confident that Dan and Dave are seeing what we are seeing and will adjust.   The wildcard however are the teppers
