Remember we get Collins back this week. Pair our dline with butler and ryan playing out of their minds right now and you have a damn solid defense
And Mayo started to look like old mayo last night.
Could be a long night for osweiller
This is definitely a 2003-2004 quality defense.
How many points will Denver score against this defense after managing just 17 against the Bears? The Bills have a much better offense than Denver at this point in the season.
And, it's highly likely that Collins and Siliga will be back for this one.
The 2015 D is not as good as the 03 D.
That's my position
It's better than the 2014 defense though, that's for sure.
I think it is close to that level. This is a 4-3 scheme in a different NFL where the running game has been devalued and holding the QB to 60% and a passer rating of 80 is now considered a great effort. It's hard to compare this defense to 2003-04 because that era had different objectives. This defense is able to make timely plays and is great on clear passing downs.
We hardly even mention that we are missing out best overall defensive player who is a top 10 in the NFL.
