Marvin neutered this defense from the start with his selection of Austin. You can't run a defense and say ok boys go out there and line up in base 4-3 zone and just roll with the punches, play soft, play back.

We've had little to no innovation, stunting, blitzing, disguising, at all. MJ has been in at RDE way to much even before the injuries and that hurts every other player down the line when the opposing offense knows there's a weak link on the field.

Geno and Carlos have likewise suffered.

Yeah, when you play so vanilla it just sets your Defense up for a disappointing season.

Have to be aggressive some of the time out there, to hardly ever stunt, blitz or use disguises won't get it done.
