In all honesty, I don't want fans or the media to give our defense a nick name.

A nick name for a defense has to be earned. The one way to earn it and make it stick is when opposing offenses and coaches give your defense a name.

No need to try and be a rapper giving himself a nick name that becomes an unfulfilled self prophecy. Capone was a gangster.... These douches are want-to-bes.

Oak agree, if they do get a call sign it will come from the media and by that point it will have been earned. They are actually a fairly solid defense, nothing amazing but certainly nothing to even consider taking lightly. I think they would have to run the table and kick up a lot of dirt from this point on to even get nicknamed. It could happen though is the point I was making.

When health returns and we get into the playoffs Ive a gut feeling we are going to out preform our present pace. That defense of 09' was no head turner but once we got into the playoffs they played very stout.

Let's re-visit this in about 2 years. No defense deserves a name part way throughout its inaugural campaign, but I Dooooo like the beginning.
