No one is tearing them down.
They have a good offense, so far, despite the weak opponents. Their passing game is tops in the league and their running game is next-to-last, ranked #31. Our offense is in the top half of the league, more balanced with rushing and passing, doing fairly well in both.
We have one of the top defenses in the league, FAR better than theirs (us 3rd, them 17th and surrender 60 more yards a game than us.
Defense will decide the game and going by stats and the season so far, we have a BIG advantage, especially with their CBs not being healthy: Blackmon - out (foot), Harris - probable (Back), Woodson - probable (foot)
