And it's not as if either of these position groups are 1 or 2 players away. It will take a multi-year focus to fix both. In the meantime, our best players are getting older every year so the window is slowly closing.
And Teryl Austion is a joke of a DC. His schemes and game plans are visually inept. Having Burfict run 20 yards back to cover the middle of a deep zone is outright insane. Dump offs are an easy 10-15 yards even if they make a tackle, which so far they haven't. Puke!
I noticed that last year also, LBs sprinting 15 yards backwards. I made a thread about it. Makes me believe I wasn't to far off when I said, Austin is Merv's puppet.....
