The fact that our offense is dick, and our defense gives up this many yards really amplifies our record being an anomaly. I think most people assume we have an elite defense when its really just been Watt and Highsmith. Dashes of cam and minkah but both have missed time

It's an elite defense in the red zone and that's somehow enough.

It’s called luck

It's a defense that struggles with being stretched but is actually quite good on a short field (red zone). They're willing to give up the middle a lot on a long field knowing that they're hard to beat when the space options are limited.
