First and foremost, I appreciate the constructive criticism in the prior installment. It will help going into the Defensive and Special Teams side of the series.
In 2014 the Cardinals fielded a defense with a plethora of questions. "How will they look without Karlos Dansby, Daryl Washington, and Darnell Dockett?", was likely the biggest one everyone asked. They showed they can play without all three, as Larry Foote was rock solid for much of they year at inside linebacker. Calais Campbell was the heart and soul of the defensive line, helping young players get their numbers by drawing consistent double teams.
