However, keep in mind we have played thus far Defense #2, Defense #3 and Defense #8 so our offense has played the tough unit schedule thus far.

Which unit is our biggest issue and needs most attention for rest of 2019 and for the future?

Offense - Ranked 25th in Points Per Game and 18th in yards per game - Rushing yards PPG is biggest issue (Last at 41.7 YPG) and 3rd in Passing
Defense - Ranked 26th in Points Per Game and 27th in Yards Per game - Pass Defense is 3rd in YPG, but 32nd (Last) in Rushing Per game

To me it is obvious, no run game and can't stop the run equals we need major overhaul in the trenches. I look at other teams and see a lot of players who look like they live in the weight room, for us I don't see our TE's ripped with muscle and I see our DB's appear to be over matched when tackling anyone of size. Who is our strength coach?

Thoughts?

Fixing the dumpster fire of an o-line would mask some of the issues on defense by keeping the d off the field. Mike/Katie/Troy’s insistence on dumpster diving and Mike/Duke’s terrible drafting has resulted in arguably the league’s worst unit. The draft next year better be heavy on the o-line and linebackers, but we said that last year and were treated to a backup TE, a two backup RB’s, and only one decent LB.
