6th best in run defense yards per carry (3.9)
14th best in pass defense yards per attempt (6.4)
9th best in defensive takeaways (23, consisting of 12 interceptions and 11 fumble recoveries)

On the downside, we are the most penalized team in the league (116 penalties accepted against us).

We have also played a lot of complete shit offenses

Edit: should have kept reading. Chuck had this point handled
