Unsung studs...

Davison
Rankins
Te'o
Robertson
Bell
and the new guy George Johnson.

Our defense is better than the average moron thinks.

I'd add Kikaha to that list, vs the Falcons he made several key plays, especially during the goal line stand. He was the one that stopped Freeman on 4th down, Kikaha was still on the floor and managed to wrap his arm around freeman and halt him until help arrived.

Rankins is getting a lot of hate lately, but he's having to do all the work in the middle right now, including eating up blockers. My hats off to the guy. I'd like to see what he could do with a big nasty next to him to free him up.

lets keep a grip here. The reason the defense is doing well is the CB are back. we are thin to make this work

D has to play strong AND play smart. Oh, and avoid injuries (please)

Everyone keeps talking about how Robertson, now Te'o keeps stepping up, which they have...

But anyone consider that Linebackers Coach Mike Nolan may have also had an effect that Joe Vitt would never have had?

It would be nice to get Hendrickson back at full speed, strength; continuing his development to be a starter...

It also would take one item off the To Do List next offseason...

Real MVPs on defense are Mike Nolan, Ryan Nielsen, and Aaron Glenn...
