Just because a team is 10th in interceptions, 10th in yards, 10th in yards allowed per drive, etc, it doesn't mean they're the 10th best defense. There are a lot of important factors not related to the team defensive statistics. I think it's more of an opinion than a statistical analysis.

Just pointing out, that last year our Defense faced the awesomeness of Cleveland, Cincinatti, St Louis, Detroit.

The D was definitely able to step up at times(against Philly, AZ, etc), but they were not consistent. Also, and I showed this in another thread, but you can get it from Pro Football reference, our D struggled on the opening drive more often than not. I know our offense did too, but most games the D gave up either a FG or TD on the opening drive.
