Just saw a stat on ESPN. Our rush defense has the worst yards per carry average in the league.
Run defense has got to step up.

Not to mention the heat, or the travel. I'm going to chill and give it a chance to gel. Maybe we don't need to cut and/or trade 'email all just yet :sarcasm_off:

We have an issue at SLB that isn't sorted yet. Our defense is having to shade that direction, and it is making Chancellor look ineffective, and is opening up some running holes when the runner gets past the line.
This will get sorted out.

That's an interesting point. I'd seen/felt Kam out of position on some of those runs and didn't connect the dots to SLB.
