I'd compare it to the 2000 Ravens. The Ravens thought they improved when they picked up Elvis Grbac, but they slumped to 10-6, lost in the WC and didn't win another playoff game until 8 years later.

It's really hard to win consistently without a good QB.

If you play 3 games against Roethlisberger, Brady, and Newton, and you allow 44 points while getting 14 sacks, 3 INT, and 6 FF, you'll win more often than not with most anyone at QB.

That said, I don't know if their defense will be that dominant again, but I don't know if I would call that smoke and mirrors either. If you don't allow teams to score and you give QBs no time, you win. Even with all these ridiculous rules made lately to increase scoring.

Their division is getting pretty tough though with the Raiders on the rise.
