The LB coverage seems more of a talent issue to me. There were many times that the D has been positioned well and have dropped easy interceptions. Throw in having a DT go down, LB’s go down, a DE go down, CB’s go down. I’m not really defending Austin but it isn’t all on him.

I tend to agree.  Guys missing tackles, lack of LB abilities, underperforming NT, and not finishing on interceptions while in position aren't really on him.

Those all lead to tons of yards given up and more opportunities for the opposing offenses.
