I hope the D hangs in there. As we know, the offense is doing terribly averaging 13.2 points a game while the opposing defenses have allowed (on average) 26.1 points/game.

But our defense has allowed 16.0 points/game versus opposing offenses which have averaged 17.3. (Average of the team averages.) So their only holding the opponents to 1.3 points per game below their usual. Only in the Giants game did they do significantly better than that.

So I'm hoping our defense isn't a house of cards.

In general, I'm afraid to make any prediction since my head is telling me things my heart doesn't want to hear.
