I don't like stats too much, but our performance on D is actually not that bad this season, at least in the stats.
We are giving up the 11th fewest points points per game at 20.5pts/G, which is actually slightly under the 21 points per game in 2009.
We are also giving up 17.6 1st downs a game this season. In 2009, we gave up 17.5 1st downs a game.
Our 3rd down percentage this season is 37%, which is lower than the defense's 40% 3rd down percentage in 2009.
So, some of our stats are back to levels similar to the 2009 levels.
