Not saying you're wrong, but I'd be more interested in metrics like third down success rate, red zone success rate, takeaways, sack rate, pressure rate, negative plays forced, points per drive, etc. As metrics of a successful defense than yards allowed. Yards allowed can be skewed by a high volume of plays, which, as Chromeburn pointed out earlier, the Colts defense has the most plays run against them in the league.
