The only reason anyone ever thought that defense was any good because the level of competition we faced was pathetic. Offenses led by QBs who had no business starting a game in the NFL. Tebow, Hanie, Painter, Boller, etc.
This defense has never had the potential talent to be top 10 at any point since 2008, and that's why I say middle of the pack is best case scenario for this group.
It'd be different if Carr was here and we had a game changer on the DL. We don't.
