the defense has played well at times , but , to think they are the 2nd best unit in the league is hysterical if you look deeply at their schedule and realize that cleveland , detroit , san fran , seattle , and chicago won't be on the slate . most likely the slate will include warner , brees and favre , maybe romo or mcnabb - do you see the defense doing it 3 weeks in a row againstthis caliber of competetion - i don't

Everyone's defense is going to have to step up. I think you are just hung up with all the stats saying that they are the 2nd best defense in the league. Honestly, who cares about those numbers? There is only one thing that matters right now and it's getting to that game in Miami in a couple of weeks. And realistically with the offense that they have, the defense doesn't have to be perfect for them to win. All numbers and stats go out the window at this point. And with the exception of Cowboys right now, who is playing better football in the NFC? I don't see any reason that they can't make it to Miami.
