They're built to rush the passer, so their run defense might be a bit weak, especially against teams like the Falcons that were built to run the ball (and especially when the offense keeps going 3 and out).

BUT they're pretty good at getting pass rush pressure... and these were from BEFORE the Saints game, so they might just have gotten better.

Today's win begins with shut down defense. Before the final drive that ended in a missed FG the Saints punted on all 5 possessions. They had a total of 22 plays for 54 yards on those drives.

Nothing is wrong with the defense at all. It has talent across the board. Its the person who runs it that's the problem. Barry is getting carried by the talent he has. I never have and never will like his signing.

I disagree, Barry has made changes and it's partly why the pressure packages are working so well. The defense has some pretty huge talent holes especially at DB, especially with Alexander, Stokes and Valentine injured.

Remember Barry's first year they were getting plenty of stops when it mattered. They were the most consistent unit that year iirc. ST was the horrorshow thst year.

Last week the D just got worn down by heavy duty run game. This week offense controlled the clock in the third, defense had some gas left. Got a stop or two in the 4th.

I'm hoping I'm reading that wrong, especially since my post started with "Defense did play better". Heck, they only gave up 10 points.

Far from "an excuse to not give the defense any credit", more like an asterisk tempering my enthusiasm.

I'll wait to see when they actually play an explosive offense. They play good against the bears. Let's be honest. This defense isn't gonna win us any championships. If the qb doesn't go down we would have gotten blown out.

Based on what?

That QB put up ten points and got their lone offensive TD on a short field cuz we went for it on fourth down.

Recall that defense also got to that QB so money times, dude got hurt. It's not just a coincidence.

Recall also that 7 of their points came on that punt return.
