Bingo. Also add in Justin Smith. Without those two, this defense would be average at best.

If the rams of all teams can destroy the saints then the niners wouldn't have much trouble, our front seven is better and our defense as a whole is much better than the rams, analysts need to wake up and realize what the niners are capable of.

I'm really not seeing it.
In fact, I'll take the opposite point of view. I don't think the Packers or Saints are built to beat a team like the 49ers in the playoffs.
In January, throwing the ball 50 times with a sieve of a defense will not win you games. Controlling the trenches on both sides of the ball and winning the turnover battle is what wins games.
The Packers and Saints will be fighting an upfield battle should they visit San Francisco in January.
Who is saying that? The Niners are probably the team best built with the way they are playing now for the playoffs.

The Packers haven't done too well at stopping anything on defense this year either.
For god sake, they gave up 450 total yards to the Rams.
Let them in the redzone 4-5 times.
If the Rams were able to punch those redzone drives in, they could've won.
It isn't like the Packers have been blowing teams out by any means.
Packers 42 Saints 34 ------ 1 TD------------------------------- Saints Total Yards 480
Packers 30 Panthers 23 -- 1 TD------------------------------- Panthers Total Yards 480
Packers 27 Bears 17 ------- 1 TD 1 FG----------------------- Bears Total Yards 300
Packers 49 Broncos 23 ---- 3 TD 1 SAFETY 1 FG ----- Broncos Total Yards 400
Packers 25 Falcons 14 ---- 1 TD 2PT CONV. 1 FG----- Falcons Total Yards 251
Packers 24 Rams 3 --------- 3 TD ------------------------------ Rams Total Yards 424
Packers 33 Vikings 26 ----- 2 FGs ---------------------------- Vikings Total Yards 435

Regarding Peter King's assessments, let's just say I'd feel more comfortable believing a 3rd grader's take on the matter.
