It all boils down to 3rd down conversions. Overall our defense ranks 7th in yards per play allowed. (9th passing, 2nd rushing) But we are dead last in the league in 3rd down conversion percentage. We are the only team in the league allowed over fifty percent (54%).
Our offense is 11th in yards per play, but only 6 teams have fewer offensive snaps than we do.
Got to work on our 3rd down defense.
Yes, this is our weakness right now, have to get it figured out. Strange with our pass rushers and Secondary.
Need better coverage from our LB's. Need Burfict and Brown back.
