We're 16th against the run, and it certainly isn't Browns fault totally. Our OLB's suck, and we played some solid run teams this year. Brown's done OK this year. And Porter and Greer have not been abused all year. |

The defense is much better this year than last year. The only difference is the lack of turnovers or actually the ability to hold on to the ball. We have had several dropped INT chances and just like the Dallas game the defense forced 5 fumbles and we didn't recover a single one. Last year we also benefited by playing against several rookie QB's whereas we only played against 2 this year and what happened in those games turnovers. Now another to consider in the turnover ratio is Drew has thrown 12 more pics than last year too.

OK, gotcha. |
we're 4th in pass defense, allowing 193.9 yards a game. Porter & Greer + the rest of the secondary can't be doing too bad or we would be ranked way lower...

I hate to say it but Greer got owned by two rookies at WR for Tampa bay, and mike Williams in Seattle. I love the guy but he needs to step up, porter seems to be sometimes one step behind alot always is just chasing after the catch is made. They are great, but not playing up to their potential.

No we are not missing Charles Grant. The Falcons passed on him after we released him. The Bears tried him out as well and after one game, they released him. The reason the Saints are not getting turnovers this year is because the Saints went from being the 25th ranked defense last season to being the 4th ranked defense this season. They are not getting turnovers because they are getting a lot more three and outs from opposing teams, which functions the same way as a turnover.
