Brown has talent too. I think Billings just needs to get in better shape as McC said in the other thread and Glasgow needs to stay healthy and we are pretty good at DT. But i might be in the minority on this one.

Still think LB'er is our biggest weakness on Defense. If all teams have to do is check it down and our Linebackers cannot tackle it is easy peasy. Doesn't matter how good our D-line is.

I know that I was screaming about NT a good bit earlier this season, but I'm not nearly as concerned as I once was.  Billings seemed to settle down and show some growth, Ringo has made quite an impact in his action with the team, Glassgow hopefully is rehabbing well.  In fact, I had forgotten all about Andrew Brown, until I saw this thread.  Combine whomever emerges from those position battles with Carl Lawson returning healthy, Sam Hubbard having a full year of experience under his belt, and Carlos and Geno continuing to do what they do best the DL should return to being a formidable force.

Heading into '19, the battle for the interior spots on the DL should be quite competitive.  If they can do the LB position justice through the draft and free agency, this defense could bounce back to playing like we've come to expect.
