PFF Grades for Saints/Bears (defense)
 

Some surprising grades here, albeit I'd guess the last two garbage drives by Chicago skews some grades...

Top Grades
Hawthorne+3.7
Warren +3.3
Galette +1.5 (only played 1/2 the snaps)

Worst Grades
Lewis -4.3
Lofton -3.7
Edibali -2.5
Jordan -1.9
Sanford -1.6
Deaderick -1.3

Everyone else graded out average

Sacks. Interceptions. Win. Defense gets an A+. :)

The intensity and focus was much improved but against what...don't know what to make of it. Even with the same effort, next two will likely be tough games.

I'd be tickled with half those stats (INTs and sacks) vs the Falcons.

Win the TO battle (and better yet - don't commit one) and we are money.

Before seeing this I was impressed by the defense as a whole. I'm going to have to rewatch the game tonight.........and maybe get my vision checked.

Well they gained 150 yards just in the 4th quarter (71 on the final garbage drive) after the game was 24-0.

They only gained 128 yards through 3 quarters.

We let our foot off the gas and I'd assume a lot of those negative grades occurred because we started playing prevent in the 4th.
