There's only 1 elite QB still playing. Why? Because the great defenses in the NFL sent all the elite QBs home. Of course defense should be the main focus this offseason, followed by drafting a guard to replace Connor Williams.

There are no elite defenses in the playoffs.

The 9ers will eventually get lit up because their secondary is trash and they won’t get to play Dak or in a snow storm every week.

Always like your posts, so I respectively disagree as our Defense played very well considering all the 3 and outs and 2 series drives we turned out at the end of the year. Always on the field it seemed like and held up pretty well. Just my thoughts.

They did let SF set the tone for the game

Here are the top15 NFL defenses.


1 Buffalo Bills
2 New England Patriots
3 Denver Broncos
4 New Orleans Saints
5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers
6 Tennessee Titans
7 Dallas Cowboys
8 Kansas City Chiefs
9 San Francisco 49ers
10 Indianapolis Colts
11 Arizona Cardinals
12 Seattle Seahawks
13 Green Bay Packers
14 Cleveland Browns
15 Los Angeles Rams


The 3 remaining defenses are nothing special. They aren’t way better than us. They’re all about the same. I don’t know what the Bengals are ranked but they don’t even show up in the top 15.

Can we just admit that this league isn’t built for defenses to be great and whatever you get from a defense is just a bonus.

Josh Allen lit the Chiefs up tonight and we didn’t even score a TD on those guys. That’s how far we are behind when it comes to competing against these type of teams.

So focus on defense all you want. Good luck getting through the playoffs and consistently stoping these top tier QBs.

If we want to win anything it needs to come from the offensive side of the ball. Anything the defense gives is a bonus.

Elite QBs win championships and defenses are just an accessory that you hope performs well.

It’s not the 90s and NFL rules are against teams playing defense.

Clueless!
Just last year the BEST Defense, TB, not only won the Super Bowl, but DOMINATED KC with Mahomes, and GB with Rogers, in back to back games!!!!!

The defense struggled in key moments in both the 49ers and Cards games. Let's also note they struggled for a bit against the Eagles backups in that last game too, giving up 17 points to the backups and Gardner Minshew in the first half.

I understand you point, but I disagree. The Chiefs, know how to use the run game. Dallas does not. Helaire, had a few good runs tonight and that setup their play action.

That and a Tight End that gets open on big plays and a wideout like Hillwho causes a D to focus on him after he burned them thereby taking pressure off Kelce

Just give up, getting you arse kicked again

Im not wrong. NFL defenses are trash. It’s not a defensive league.

It’s all about the QB and how far the QB can take you. The defense is just an accessory to the QB.

You are right, 9ers win with offense

People overglorify the QB position like it’s the ONLY thing you need to get over the hump.

People here actually saying we’d be in the NFCCG if we had Burrow. What a joke.

At the end of the day, this is just another attempt to dump more on Prescott. Everything was great. Prescott stunk. Defense was great. Prescott stunk. OL was great. Prescott stunk. Moore called a good game. Prescott stunk.

That's all this really is.

And FWIW, Prescott was not good against the 49ers but he wasn't the only player/coach that struggled.

Ive been saying all year NFL defenses are trash. Has nothing to do with Dak.
