Ok our LBers aren't great but after that we've got some decent players, a couple great.No pressure on good QBs = blow out losses. This line got consistent pressure last year rushing four. This year no pressure can be found. Is the NFL allowing more holding so as to protect certain "franchise" QBs. Sure seems that way to me. In the Steeler game Gino was being double teamed by the guard and center and they called him for holding. It just keeps getting harder and harder to watch this version of the NFL.
The coaching, the practice, the scheme, the playcalling, and most importantly the tone of this defense is all wrong. You can't completely take away a defense's aggressiveness playing soft the entire game and expect good results.
How ML can stand by and watch this is dumbfounding
