In terms of yards yes, but having forced 30 turnovers?

I like my defense to force turnovers and like Rip said, their defense is good enough to win it all.

Forcing TOs though is a double-edged sword when it comes to the playoffs. Remember before the Lions lost 83249872134 games in a row? They led the league in forced TOs and were 6-2.

Teams in the playoffs are there because they make less mistakes. It is nice to have some ball hawks, but they have to step up still to make a run and not rely on TOs.

Of course Favre is due for a 5 pick game so he may give it up when they get there. Indy won't if they meet them in the SB. That would be a sick game.
