The defense is one of the best in the NFL. The issues that were hard to overcome last night include
1) Flowers OUT
2) Van Noy OUT
3) Wise playing injured
4) Branch being injured early
5) the defense being out there way too long because the offense couldn't convert on one 3rd down even once all day
===========
I don't know about next week. Chung could be added to the walking injured. However, IMHO, this defense is good enough for the playoffs and the Super Bowl. The obvious key factor is much more health before the playoffs.
BOTTOM LINE
We need Flowers and Van Noy.
