I disagree. I still strongly believe the defense has been unfairly and unintelligently criticized.

True, they have been good and were put in bad situations, however, the special teams was far more consistent Rarely giving up a long kick off or punt return too something that we as fans have grown accustomed to under John Fassel.

Let's not forget the special teams from yesteryear, Mike Martz changed special team coaches as often as his socks and although the units got somewhat better not to this extreme. Frank Ganz under Dick Vermeil's units might have been a tad better because of Tony Horne, but as Ram fans the run that Fassel has had reminds me of the units under Chuck Knox & John Robinson with the likes of Bill Stein, Norwood Van and Mark Jerue to post a few.
