Week 2 DVOA

Seattle remains higher than most of us would probably anticipate. No opponent adjustments account for a good bit of that, though.

We've got a top 8 defense

If you look at yardage, points, passing, etc and completely ignore strength of opponents.

Mike Wahle(OG), Walter Jones(LT), Chris Spencer(C), Marcus Trufant(CB), Deion Branch(WR), Sean Locklear(OT), Brandon Mebane(DT), Leroy Hill(LB), Lofa Tatupu(LB), Josh Wilson(CB), Justin Griffith(FB), Matt Hasselbeck (QB)

Which is to say, completely ignore the performance of our defense.

No, not really, it’s not that bad. But it definitely hasn’t been the 8th best defensive performance to date, really regardless of opponent adjustments. The success criteria bolstered our case more than we quality of play really wowed me, snap to snap.

Though with the two runs and the mid-3rd quarter onward our defense was embarrassed, the 2nd quarter against the Rams til half-time or so was not displeasing. Its also not an formidable force that can pick up the slack for the rest of the team.
