If we literally didn't do anything but play a 4/5 man Dline and run the most obvious man to man every single play every single game and literally never even blitzed or anything, our defense would be better than this performance, cause at the very least we wouldn't be taking our own guys out against the run. We'd get murdered in the pass game, but that works to our strengths! Our strength as a team is Offense. The more posessions in a game the more likely our offense will score than the opponents offense AND the better chances one of our guys can force a turnover through the air. We can't force any turnovers if all the opponent is doing is running it. And if all they are doing is running it is running out the clock and reducing total possessions our offense gets, that's worst case scenario cause we know **** well we aren't holding anyone under 24.
How the **** our entire defense isn't built around Strong Run D and Great Pass Rush is just baffling given our roster and what the players we do have are actual strong and weak at.
