I know our defense is not perfect at all, but if it continues at the same level or better and we add in Tevez, it would be a huge boost to the whole team. For a couple of reasons.
#1 Tevez is the kind of player needed for games like Catania or Bologna. A player that can breakdown a tough defense and finish on a half chance from 25 yards. None of attackers (well DP is 37) have that kind of ability to be considered a game winning player.
#2 Tevez would probably be the best player in Serie A. Therefore with him in our attack, teams are much more likely to sit back more than usual and not be as aggressive on the attack because they would be punished on a counter-counter-attack. Therefore we would concede less goals if our defense carries on at least the same level or better. Especially with Vidal and Marchisio to a certain extent (in some games) bossing the midfield.

There are a lot of factors for me to take into account as well, with the price of Tévez and his wages, then there's the next three months for him to do something to prove he is still in the mood to play football and not retire (which he has threatened to do at an early age if I remember correctly). I don't necessarily disagree with what you say, that he'd be one of the top players in the league to help us through tough games when he's mentally focused.
Not that I think we'll be getting him anyway
