Jacksons really the hugest lose IMO and Brandon Meriweather isnt even that good he had a overrated pro-bowl year in NE and thats it. We just dont have the right coaches or players for this D . Now 04-05 where real good defenses.

How exactly do you know whether the loss of Jackon/Meriweather isn't that much? It's hard to say that without them ever playing a single down. Not unless you have some sort of ability to see into another dimension where they are healthy and played the last 6 games.

I think Jackson and Meriweather were upgrades over what we had, but yet still a stop gap until we could find something better.
