We have a number of guys on this team that have been cut by other teams that really we picked up off the street, guys that weren't given a chance in other organizations to play, for whatever reason. The powers that be decided they didn't have the talent to play at this level, and these guys have come in and been starters for us.
More Quotes from Grant Wistrom:
I think we might not have as much talent on our defense this year, but I think we have much better team players this year. Guys aren't going out there and freelancing. They're spending more time in film study and playing good assignment defense the only way it should be played, and that's at 100 miles per hour.Grant Wistrom

Big plays at the end and big plays in the middle of the game. You're like, 'If I had just done this a little bit differently.' But that's why there's always next year.

For whatever reason, all year long our defense hasn't been given the credit it probably deserves. But if we go out and play well on Sunday, we'll get all the recognition we need. That's fine.
