Remember that Williams took a defense that finished #25 in 2003 and had them finish #3 in 2004. That year we traded away Champ Bailey, Trotter, and Armistead. Our star LB Lavar Arrington was sidelined all year, and Mike Barrow, the guy who was supposed to be our star replacement for Trotter, never saw the field. (And don't even get me started on what people expected our d-line to be like against the run).

My point is that we really don't know what we will play like until the season starts or what (or who) we might stumble onto (Pierce).
