The Dline is not the problem

[BubbaGump]

The title says it all. The secondary is historically bad! This team is not going anywhere with this secondary.

7 sacks and still gave up 44 points. The defense just can't play a complete game.

Buff's o-line was tore up from the floor up, hence the sacks. When you have such a clear defensive edge, how do you just get passed on into 44 pts?

OH. Because of competent coaching.

How many of those sacks came from a 4 man rush? Maybe 1, they can't get home unless they blitz so the DL is certainly part of the problem.

Problem is most were off blitzes which leaves you back end open and how many of those blitzes did not hit dirt? Answer a lot.

Well, hate to say this, but you give up 44 points with 7 sacks when you 3rd down defense sucks and your offense turns the ball over 4 times! Not to many teams turn the ball over 4 times and win, just saying. (Shotty - I'm talking about you. Terrible game plan.)

It is a problem. We haven't been able to create pressure with four, so coaches try to call blitzes, but if you call too many, you are bound to get burned like we saw today.

Let's not limit this to one line; there has been more than enough suck to go around for everyone. We're great at MLB and safety. We could fire the rest of the defense tonight for all I care.
