They look good against mediocre teams and below. But the half dozen or so good/great players we have just can't push up over the top against the better competition.

This team needs a major overhaul to become a consistent winner. Like 4 - 6 starters on both sides of the ball. And a kicker

Yep. Even 2-3 upgrades on defense of guys that are fast would help.

It's telling that Pratt had to go off on the sideline to get CTB benched. Then, the guys they put in were younger, faster, and inexperienced...and the defense improved.

The defensive line needs something. Hubbard does very little out there. Murphy and Ossai didn't seem to do much. Then, at DT we're pretty bad too.

I don't know. If you put Warren Sapp in his prime on our defense, I still think it has issues.
