Watch the Seahawks defense last year and this year and that is your answer....we were playing good under Bradley, but Quinn took us to another level and made some key position changes
Your defense didn't "look" better because of Quinn...
Your defense "looks" better because half your games are against back up QB's or bad QB's...
2 against St Louis...Backup QB both times.
2 against Cardinals...Backup QB's both times
1 against Philly...back up QB who was so bad before this year he got ran out of town for the last team he played with
2 against San Fran...Kap was so bad this year he was like a backup QB
1 against KC....Alex Smith never throws the ball downfield...did not throw a touchdown pass to a receiver all year in a year where more flags were thrown against defenses vs the pass ever...
16 games and 8 of them are against Backup QB's...3rd string QB's...and Qb's who are seriously flawed...
Any team in the league defensive numbers would look good if that was 8 of their 16 games...
