We had guys out there that were lying on the couch watching the season openers like we were. The defense was much improved in the games Elerbe alone was able to play in!
Do you believe a healthy defense could hold the bucs to 10 points on the road? Hold the giants to 10 points? hold KC to 17 offensive points?

3 phases. offense Defense and special teams. Interested the games you mention had more to do with offense and special teams than the Defense holding teams to point totals. Blocked kick return for a TD was the difference in Giants game, 3 Interceptions by Brees in Tampa, and a Pick 6 by Brees going into halftime at KC. All on the road by the way. The Denver game was also a special teams disaster. I will no longer engage you as many others have. I'm now on Troll alert

Huh? I was pointing out defense had little to with those games.

I never factored anything like that. I brought up something fixable(before the season starts). I had my worries about Unger though because of his age but never even brought him getting hurt up. Don't turn that crap around on me.

Being invited to the pro bowl has nothing to do with players being elite. All Pro is elite.
