Plus OL is just horrid. 

That's been one of the biggest problems of the Merv era.

Other than the Chiefs game we are generating enough offense that I find it hard to criticize him. Yes there is an argument to be made that with less time of possession he is making it harder on the defense but regardless, the defense is supposed to be better than this. That is where I'll focus my attention. Fix that and if we still don't struggle in some games we can talk about fixing other stuff.

You could also make an argument that the defense isn't getting off the field quickly, allowing 1st downs and long drives, increasing the T.O.P. discrepancy and giving the offense fewer possessions. Keep in mind that our defense ranks dead last in 3rd down %.

The biggest stat of all is that our defense is also dead last in plays per drive (6.7) while our offense ranks 13th in the same stat. Kinda proves that the defense is more to blame for our time of possession problem.
