If you want turnovers and sacks I would have stuck with Baltimore's.

Dallas' defense may take the next step this year, but based on last year, Baltimore would've been my pick.

Dallas forced a paltry 25 turnovers while leading the league in yards allowed (253.5 per game)and finishing second in points allowed (16.2).

Baltimore tied for second in the NFL with 41 take aways while finishing third in yards allowed (271.3 per game) and sixth in points allowed (17.6).

The Ravens were in another league when it came to forcing turnovers and they only allowed 1.4 more points per game than the Cowboys did.

Baltimore knows defense.

But like I said, Dallas could field an improved unit with the front line looking so much better.

Maybe if you had'nt been 'off burning one!' all afternoon you could make up your mind. cough, cough

That's why I can never get into FF leagues. First I'm not really a stats guy, and secondly my whole team would be made up of Cowboys. I would have even drafted T-Ham last year if I'd joined.

All you FF leaguers are going to be so torn if T.O. lights up the secondary a couple of times this year

BTW, I'm going to go out on a limb her and say that this Cowboys defense has a chance to be one of the best defenses that the league has seen in the last 5 or 6 years.

~pass that over here buddy~

For what it is worth, I think you made the right call in going with the Big 'D' in Big D.

Dallas D and sacks don't belong in the same sentence.

And even though the Ravens D isn't as good as it was in the Super Bowl run of 2000 the D still creates far more turnovers and sacks opposing Qbs far more times than our D does.

Amen Bluefin!

Dallas may turn things are this year but even if they do I doubt they'll still be anywhere close to creating the turnovers as Baltimore seems to do on a yearly basis.
