I think pass rush and scheme are towards the bottom of the list of problems. If you can’t make a simple tackle your screwed. Teams will kill us with the short passing game and play action. The Bengals were good on defense because they stuffed the run with tackles for loss and stopped the short passing game with great gang tackling getting in a lot of long down and distance passing situations were guys like Hendricks could pin his ears back and rush. The Jets game was a disaster tackling wise. The Nick Chubb TD run was a joke with horrific attempts to tackle him. Idk what happened to Logan Wilson? he was awful vs. the Jets and couldn’t shed a block to safe his life vs. Cleveland same with Pratt. Bates is underperforming him and Eli Apple can’t tackle ,Larry O missing tackles in the backfield for a loss that he used to make.
