We have some good players with great talent which seem to be in the wrong places at the wrong times and failing to execute. A lot of this can be put on coaching but not all of it. One good thing is rookies getting some playing time and some chances to display their talents and grow better each week. This team is very tough on fans. It's tough to sway either way weather they are a boom or bust this season. But Bates and Hubbard surely are a bright spot.

I agree with this - except for the linebacker room, and there is even potential for a significant improvement there if they can get healthy and Burfict can keep his head out of his backside.

The biggest problem besides the LBs is the confusion in the defensive backfield.   I think it's a combination of rookies and a new defensive scheme - plus injuries.

Hopefully they solve some of those issues in the 2nd half.
