Building the trenches

The production isn’t matching investment.  Hopefully everyone can come back healthy, but I still don’t see that to leading to a pass rush that can put stress on a QB.

What does that even matter? Most of the money is being spent on the starting DEs, Trey gives sack production and Sam isn't playing like himself. The problem is with the interior, the top 4 DTs on the team are or have been sidelined with injuries. You don't think that has a tremendous effect on stopping the run? 

Not that our starting DTs would make many OLs think twice about getting a push on them, but when they see an over the hill guy and a few scrubs in front of them, they start licking their chops.
