Wait…. wtf are those “defensive rankings” based on? Your silly interpretation of good and bad? Let’s run down the list:
in
2001 you have them ranked 24th worst, based on what? They ranked 6th best in the entire NFL in points allowed, they ranked 8th best in forced turnovers… in what imaginary Brady-stan’s wet dream does that rank them 24th worst?! You realize they tally wins and loses based on points right?
2010: You have 25th worst.
Reality was 8th in points allowed, 2nd in the entire NFL in forced turnovers.
2011: You have them as 31st worst.
Reality: 15th in points allowed, 3rd in forced turnovers
2012: You have them as 25th worst.
Reality: 9th in points allowed, 2nd in turnovers
2013: You posted 26th worst.
Reality: 10th in fewest points, 10th in turnovers
2017: You wrote 29th worst.
Reality: 5th in points allowed, 25th in turnovers
And they suffered mass injuries right before the super bowl that year to Hightower, Branch, Jon Jones and Chung. So obviously they weren’t as good in the final game.
2018: You wrote 21st worst.
Reality they were ranked 7th in fewest points allowed and 5th in forced turnovers.
So I don’t know where you found your bullcrap defensive ratings, but they’re total garbage. What is this insanity, some analytics garbage or DVOA nonsense?
Give us a break. A defense can’t be top ten in fewest points allowed and top five in forced turnovers and be ranked 25th worst… that’s some duplicitous stuff Crawdaddy.
Who did you think you were going to fool with those made up ratings?!
For anyone who wants to double check my stats:

The most important stat in football is points, the second most important stat is turnovers because no other stat correlates more to points.
Crawdaddy is literally trying to run a con here ^, that’s how strong his agenda is.
