You were happy with last seasons defense weren't you? 24th in turn overs.

What is your focus? Yards, points, turnovers...

I do believe we forced a turnover yesterday.. no? The original statement was that we couldnt win in the playoffs with out a defense. Yes we can.

Not saying the 09 defense was better, just a turn-over machine and that helped us win.

2010 and 2013 defenses were far better than 09'.

If I had my choice for the defensive focus it would not relate to turnovers. Lock them down and make them earn every inch, turnovers will come.
