Wins: C Wentz, A Dalton/B Dinucci, A Dalton, N Mullens, B Roethlisberger, J Hurts/N Sudfeld, J Burrow/R Finley
Losses: R Wilson, K Murray, B Mayfield, J Goff, T Brady, L Jackson, D Jones (x2), M Stafford, T Bridgewater
Ok....but then count the losses where the defense had no chance because Haskins was starting and unless we pitched a shut out, they had no chance to win. Defense didn’t lose the Seattle, Carolina, first Giant game, or second one for that matter. The D had three bad games last year. Detroit, Rams and the playoff game. Look at the 2019 season. We’re headed in the right direction and I’m not sure why fans of the team feel the need to bash the best part of the team. They aren’t the best D of all time or anything, but considering everything that occurred last off season and during the season, we are obviously much better.

The D was good, and like I said they will probably be better this year. It's ok to say that, and it's also ok to acknowledge this team didn't really beat a good, healthy team last year.

I’m aware. But it’s also a big step forward from losing to everyone good or bad like we have for the last several years.

The D carried this team as far as they could last year. All I'm saying is the offense has to take a couple steps forward for them to compete this year, given the schedule. Not bashing at all...

I think they will. One that can’t be much worse and we’ve made a lot of decent upgrades. We won’t be boring, that’s for sur.

Yes you are right, also keep in mind that last year was the first for a (defensive minded) coaching staff to really get to know all of its players strengths/weaknesses in THEIR system with THEIR coaching. Expect to see a giant leap and most of our star talent is young, expect MAJOR growth there...also, you can only play who your schedule allows...last year, there were games where our defense carried us single handly with an anemic offense

Also, as Ron Is building a power house defense, he’s also building a really good online, so we can play ball control football...using our speed pre-snap to run motions to help out running game too...as it makes the defense freeze for a second to make sure the WR doesn’t get the handoff as they run by
