So it might be a good thing to bring in a new D-line coach.

 

Before the injuries started piling up, I thought the DL was doing a pretty good job.  The best example that comes to mind is the second half of that Miami game.  Losing guys like Lawson and Glassgow really takes a toll on the others, when those snap counts start piling up.  MJ continuing to diminish, and Jordan Willis failing to develop into an impact player, really didn't help the situation much.  The LB situation didn't make their jobs any easier, either.

So, do you put that on the coaching, or just bad luck?
