The LB core was a big time part of that. The other team knew when we blitzed that there would always be the outlet guy wide open. When we didnt blitz the QB could just sit there until their TE or RB ran by our guys.
When we did blitz the QB killed us, because our LB's were in one on one situations. PFF stated our LB core coverage ratings were historically bad. Our secondary graded out as the number 7 secondary....now realize how bad the LB group had to be for that to be true.
