There are several factors that lead into that problem, like poor tackling by sub-standard LBs, and the ineffectiveness of the DTs to fill holes and take up space. When teams can run at will, a defense fails to control what the offense does. When a defense can stop the run effectively, offenses can pass when they want to, rather than being forced into a one dimensional existence.
When a defense can stop the run regularly, with authority, they can then not fear the run and go all out on pressuring the passer. Plain and simple.
Yep, since basically the beginning of football time if a team can run the ball on you, you're beat. And we get ran on with regularity !
We need a run stuffing, space eating, blocker taking up NT in a bad way. Is Glasgow that guy ? I dunno
