Sure there wasn't a lot of NFL film on Jackson but they can't afford youtube ?
There were a few gap issues where the DL got too far upfield to hold their rush lanes, but most of the issues appeared to be from the LBs getting out of position (Nickerson) or allowing themselves to be swallowed up by second level blockers (Burfict). I think Evans looks decent out there. Burfict shouldn’t be on the field if the hip is still an issue. I can’t think Jefferson or Bell would be a significant downgrade at this point. We gave up nearly 300 yards on the ground and LBs are constantly out of position
