Offenses that turn the ball over a lot put their defense in such a bad position that they give up points even if they are good. if not then turnovers wouldn't be so important. While red zone defense has been much better to date than the rest of the field, how long can that last when teams gash Petine's defense on the ground and through the air. Wentz didn't have any problems vs the Packers and I suspect other very good qb's will find the end zone as easily. Is it too much to ask to finally have a defense in the top half of the nfl especially after the massive investments in it. Its ridiculous to suggest that a defense that gets routinely gashed will play out of character in the playoffs against great qb's and be stellar in the red zone. Not going to happen. What's more likely to happen is the dam bursts and we see another 45 put on the board.</blockquote>
