The 'atleast we're not the Browns' defense. Atleast we're not the worst of the absolute worst.
And I'll give you that we are respectable. We're the Andy Dalton of franchises...somewhere in the 14-16 range if you ranked all QB's and Franchises.
We've made the step from horrible to average to sometimes good. But, the jump from good to great is steep and requires commitment to being the best EVERY DAY. You can't take shortcuts to being great. You can't just go through the motions in camp and preseason.
Going from good to great is something that we haven't been able to do and the clock is ticking on our core.
