Since week 5, we've been one of the best defenses in the league.

Packers - 35 ppg avg(#1), 25 against us
Panthers - 21 ppg avg(#19), 17 against us
Lions - 28 ppg avg(#4), 16 against us
Colts - 13 ppg avg(#30), 0 against us
Saints - 31 ppg avg(#2), 26 against us

The problem has been with our offense. Between our line, Roddy having a poor year, Ryan being off, and Julio being injured, we just haven't been getting it done.
You can say the same thing about our defense last year, that didn't stop GB from tearing us a new one.

Honestly, I give every ounce of credit to what our defense is doing to the players. BVG runs one of the simplest, softest blitzing/schemes in the NFL. If we had a real DC, we could have a dominant defense.
