This Seahawks D is on the level of that 06 Bears D, they are aggressive, disciplined and play their scheme to the utmost. Great defense that unlike (and this is important) some of these other squads, had a great QB/RB combo on the other side of the ball.

That said, this isn't the 2000 Ravens where you could take most of these guys, put them on a different team and watch them still make the Pro Bowl.

This defense has maybe 2 or 3 guys who are really special like that

Earl Thomas will probably be the best safety of this generation

Richard Sherman is this team's Charles Tillman, more or less. Could end up being even better.

They have a nice rotation of guys on the dline (Avril, Bennett, Mebane, Clemons, Red Bryant) but so did that Bears team (Ogunleye, Tommie Harris, Brown, Mark Anderson, Tank Johnson)
