All if this talk if Geno and Dunlap not playing well this year is so silly. They have a symbiotic relationship with the LBs and secondary.

It's not that Geno and Dunlap were playing badly it's more that our NT and other side of line weren't great or sporadic at best.

If QBs were making first read throws and quick underneath stuff all of the time you might have a point.

Like another poster said there were times when QBs had time to make more reads and stand flat footed.

That's not good.

No doubt our Lbers are bad but they were glaring with the lack of pressure.

You're right.  It all goes hand in hand though.  You could even reverse that logic to say our CBs are being abused because of it.  Our bad LBers look even worse.

It just needs to be acknowledged that out front 4 as a unit need improvement.
