2009 25th ranked defense <--- wound suggest not very talented.
Sharper - 9 INTs (very talented)
Porter - Jumped Payton Manning's route (not an extremely talented corner back)"

That would be true but that doesn't tell the whole story in 09 we gave everybody 40+ All of those defensive stats are padded from garbage time if we didn't sh__ on everyone i'm sure the defense would have buckled down and ranked top 5 they knew how to get off the field on 1st down 2nd down and 3rd down i would argue the colts 09 team was better then the bronco's '13 team we shut them down, i won't argue that our 09 defense was better then seattle's '13

I even knew the colts were better, the team had more heart than the broncos. Manning made a terrible choice.
