I know this statistic - which is based on yardage yielded. Yet, our defense got few sacks and few turnovers and points for their team.
In the NFL you've got to be able to generate turnovers and points on the defense. We could not; nor could not stop the best QB.
This justification is why this team can't improve past 8-9 wins because for a decade we've drafted WR and DB, or used our FA money to chase aged players. Our overall win-loss statistics shows the result of that philosophy regardless of the coaches.
