Also TB had excellent LB play that lead to a super bowl. Finally i am not surprised that our defense started slipping as our LB play went south to worst in league.. Finally with increase in QBs in play action and RPOs LBs are being exposed and a solid core is needed
Ravens & Steelers are 3-4 teams so their LBs are going to be much more impactful. Where as the Bengals play more nickel and have 2 LBs a lot of the time.
I agree that production from that spot is not wowing anyone, but they are all really young. Personally, I think 3 seasons is a good number to wait to before becoming concerned with development.
