I've asked this question before, but how many current NFL defenses have all 11 starters healthy? I'm guessing not many. Watson played great but there's still talented players throughout this defense. It's not like we're down Watson, plus Jones, plus say Bolton or Reid. A great defense should be able to overcome a #2 CB injury. I believe we have the personnel and coaching to do that. Spags is just figuring out how to manage the current group without Watson.

Which is why no NFL team in the SB era has ever three-peated.
