#1 Rushing Defense

awesome

Their Passing Defense is ranked #17

Their Passing Offense is ranked #5

Their Rushing Offense is ranked # 18

I hope their passing defense ranking increases, especially now with Polamalu back.

And hopefully Mendenhall will keep breaking out some long runs, to improve the rushing offense.
