Their defense has been solid all year and has consistently been better than their offense. Anarumo is a real whiz who loves to mix things up. They lost Awuzie & that really hurts them. They have a rookie Taylor-Britt playing at that spot and he's not really a man corner & Eli Apple isn't that great on the other side either. I still wouldn't expect anything to be easy on either side of the ball.

You didn’t mention the absolute garbage slate of quarterbacks that their defense has faced. Why?
Please also explain how their run game has really come on as of late.
3.8 yards per carry against the Titans.
2.6 yards per carry against the Steelers.
3.6 yards per carry against the Browns.
They’ve had 1 good rushing game over their last 6, which was against the Panthers (who are one of the absolute worst run defenses in football). They’ve allowed over 100 rushing yards in all but 2 games this year. They’ve allowed 130+ yards 6 times this year.
