A dominant secondary will cause a fear of embarrassment more than a fear of injury.
Still for true intimidation factor I would expect guys like Jimmy Graham to not spend the lead up week boasting of how great they're going to do and instead spend that week talking about how their ankle still isn't quite right or their hip is still iffy or their hammy is still a little tweaked from last week. I would expect to see opponents planting excuse seeds for the poor performance they know is coming.
Maybe that will start next season after this year has sunk in.
I don't remember anyone boasting of looking forward to Randy Johnson so they could show how good they were against him.
