No. Carolina has benefited a lot this year from turnovers (leading the league in both fumbles recovered and interceptions). They have a turnover differential of +20, compared to +3 last year. That's about 50% better than the next best place team in the NFL (KC with 14). That's not sustainable. They'll be good still, but I expect them to come back to earth once the turnover differential evens out a bit.

Look at stats like DVOA for a true barometer on how sustainable offensive, defensive, and special teams performance are.

Yep. See New Orleans Saints 2009. Their defense was generating turnover after turnover and the offense just kept putting up scores.

I'm sure alot of Saints fans said the same about a dynasty.
