Geno Atkins, and Dunlap are good, but the biggest reason why the defense is so dominant is Burfict. If you disagree you need to open your eyes and actually watch the defense.
w/o Burfict the defense gave up 20.33 points per game (which would have made us 12th in points allowed if that trend continued), and 370 yards per game (which would have made us 23rd in yards per game if that trend continued). With Burfict the defense gave up 15.7 points per game, and 294 yards per game. That's a HUGE difference
But keep saying Burfict isn't a big reason why the defense is so dominant. It just shows how little you know.
