Our defense under both JJ and DW have been dominant early on to tail off at the end of the year, with last year against houston being the exception. If our defense carries us through those first six games, then we should be in great shape because, aside from Baltimore and NE, Buffalo and maybe Denver, the rest of our opponents aren't as strong defensively. And six weeks should be enough time for the line to jell, the offense to have an identity and AJ, if he's the starter, to jell with the wr's and rb's. Either way we need our offense moreso down the stretch to step up, when the defense annually wares down.
