The only disagreement I have is that while I'm not saying we will definitely have a "best all-time" type defense, I see no reason to believe we won't. In short, I see no reason to limit this defense's potential ceiling in my mind. I believe the sky's the limit.

Yeah we've got some really talented guys on defense. I don't think any of the guys in the projected front 7 have reached their peak yet. All those guys are getting better and they all like playing together.

Ya that's definitely true, this team certainly has the raw talent as in years past. My feeling at least, is that we take a half step back largely due to losing so much experience and leadership over the past couple years.
I could certainly be wrong in that feeling, it just seems to be a bit more cyclical in my mind and while we lose a ton each year, one every few years it catches up so to speak. This years D will be very good but just seems to me like that "changing of the guard" type season with those guys gaining that experience and comfort in the leadership position as they continue to improve. The following years I feel like is when they really show out as those undeniably elite level defenses.
I'm really splitting hairs though and its just kind of the feeling i get looking back over the past three year run of incredible D.
