A dominant front 7 has proved to compensate for a pedestrian DB corp. I can think of four recent SBs where this was the case (both NY wins and Pittsburgh wins). The only SB winning defense I can remember that clearly dominated from its secondary was our ole buddy G Williams in NO.
And I don't think there's any lack of talent among that group, even with the Carriker/Orakpo/Merriwether injuries. With those guys we should be a top 5 defense, and even without them top 10.
