Hunter2_1 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Right now? Something like; Jags, Redskins, Bears, Rams, Ravens? Too early to tell, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMossIsBoss Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Jags no question. They are the best defense in the NFL. I think the Eagles have carried over enough talent and played well enough thus far to preserve their status as a top 5 defense that they held last year. Other 3? Too early to tell, good defenses from last year have disappointed, defenses doing well this year haven't been tested... I'd say the 3 are somewhere in this pile of Bears, Ravens, Vikings, Rams, Colts, Panthers, Browns, Redskins, and it will be clear by midseason.

The Vikings have no business being anywhere near the top 5. They just haven’t been very good this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have so many incredible pieces on that defense with Rhodes, Smith, Barr and a ton on the DL. I though they'd be smashing teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly hasn’t been all that special either. They looked defeated vs Tennessee. I’ll take the Jags, Bears, Ravens, Rams, and Browns (despite giving up 30+ vs Oakland).

Danger Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 There aren't a top 5 defense this year. Most of them all suck. Jags Redskins Bears Ravens Everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDotNova Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 3 hours ago, SBLIII said: Jags, Bears, Ravens, Jets, Browns Seems about right at the moment. Still early in the season. The Rams and Vikings could come on strong and jump some of these teams. As it stands, I think the Jags, Bears and Browns are top 5 defenses with teams like the Ravens, NYJ, SEA, MIA, WAS and PHI fighting for the other two spots.

TheVillain112 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Dallas deserves some recognition. They are arguably a top 5 defense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While they have a strong pass rush, up until their last game yesterday against a weak Houston offense, they were 32nd in the league in takeaways (2), 29th in the red zone DVOA and 26th in pass DVOA. Combine that with being 17th in variance(showing inconsistency), despite playing the 19th easiest offensive schedule, it shows that they're clearly vulnerable and have yet to show much improvement to be considered top-5.
