That doesn't say specifically up the seams, but just seems kind of logical.
If you look at the in depth statistics of each game, you will see the most of the issue covering TEs last year was a LB problem.
Lamur, Vincent Rey, Maualuga, and even Burfict when he was in early in the season had their troubles with TEs. A lot of these plays were short/intermediate routes and I don't think you'd see our defense giving up the big TE up the middle play more often than the average NFL squad.
Iloka and Nelson have held down the fort very well, especially last season.
