In the last 5 games of the year the Defense was on pace per 16 games to have the 5th best 3rd down Defense, 2nd best in allowing first downs, and 11th in scoring.
That's without a Carl Lawson on the edge, a healthy Nick Vigil at LB, and a new toy in Germaine Pratt.
I hope lou saw what Marvin did at the end of last year and copies a lot of it.

PFF had our secondary ranked 7th.
They had our LB's worked LAST...by a far margin. We gave up an obscene amount of yards receiving from our LB group.

They had our offensive line as 27. (The Rams was 6th.)

Not sure about Defensive Line.

The way to have a good team is to minimize how many bad starters you have. You don't need stars at every position. You need a few stars, and then a bunch of average guys.
