Based on the changes we have made, how we'll do you see the defense doing this year? At dead last in 2012 in yardage allowed, how much worse can we really get?

I honestly don't see enough improvement in talent to improve much more am given the change in staff and scheme it makes me even more hesitant to think we will jump up much higher.

My prediction: no better than 25th best defense.

Ill go with 20th. we'll have a slight advantage this year as teams figure out how to move the ball on us.

kinda like Gregg Williams fist year - Championship!

The magic 8-ball says we will be better vs the pass. More sacks and more turnovers. Stout against the run up the middle. Weak vs the run to the outsides.

Would be thrilled to climb to 22nd.

Change of scheme is always a positive for a defense. Ryan is a good motivator and players are drawn to him. I could see on the high side, 22-25 and the low side 12-15

anything better than 20 with positive turnover ratio, bring another ring

21 ish. People don't consider that often it's just a few yards separating several spots. He'll just running theball more and eating a bit more clock each game should move you up.
