In the modern NFL you aren't going to field more than maybe a handful of dominant defenses. Even less likely on a team that's built to score like we are with a marquee passing game.

Yup.

Only 4 teams in the entire NFL give up less than 19 points a game.

The 5th through 25th teams all give up between 19 and 25 a game.

The Saints are giving up 25.4 since week 2 and only gave up over 28 ONCE since then, against Denver. And that is against five of the top ten scoring offenses in the league. The D is doing it's part.

Our O should definitely be able to win games like that.

If we can knock that number down by just a FG to 22 a game, I don't think anyone on our schedule can beat us.
