It depends on what you believe the reason for our non-existent pass rush might be. Is it Lou employing a passive, soft defensive gameplan as he absolutely did in Indy last week? Is it the strong possibility that the pass rushers on this roster just aren't any good? Both?
I'm in the both camp, but a coach is charged with taking the players he has available and crafting something effective from it. Lou was given the biggest Bengal free agency haul in the history of ever on his side of the ball. Yes, many of these additions are hurt. Even so, he still has 25 mil worth of veteran pass rushers that he's doing squat with.
I think Lou has to be the sacrificial goat here. He's not going to win with this bunch. I don't know if anyone else is, but I'm convinced enough that he isn't.
