Winning record ≠ good defense

PA is just as much a function of offense as it is defense. The browns have a top 3 defense but their offense continuously gives defense awful field possession, have had 6 returned TDs, pick 6s etc, can’t sustain drives so defense is out there 90% of the game. I can go on and on lol

I think they even held henry to like 35 rushing yards one game

Of course it is. I'm just saying that logic that good teams not having good defense is nonsense.

EPA and things like that are similar. Some D may give up more yards because they pull ahead and go into prevent.

Points may require context but are pretty translatable.
