Little Lou Who Is Consistent

1.) The Defense has played well enough to win two of the first three games this season. Today they had 3 sacks, 2 INTs, 6 TFLs, held the eagle's under 5 yards a pass attempt, and a QB rating of 63. The Chargers were held to under 20 points and that's with holding them to 3 points off two Turnovers.
2.) Over the past 10 games dating back to last year's Raiders game the Defense has played well in all but two of them(Dolphins game and this year's Browns Game). It's not like this unit hasn't shown significant improvement since the first half of 2019.
3.) They haven't played a game with their best player in Geno Atkins.

Outside of the Browns Game the Defense has played well. The real blame should go to the Offensive Line who can't block anyone in either the run game or Passing Game.

They never made the big stop when they had too. The Ward TD in the last minute of the half and then the tying TD given up with 30 seconds left. Not a sign of a good defense. Sure, there were flashes against the Chargers but let's be honest; the Chargers and Eagles offenses aren't exactly juggernauts. The Browns offense is good and they crushed the Bengals defense. That game was not as close as the score. Every time the Bengals get back to within one score, Browns jammed it down their necks and scored again. 

I think there is SOME talent on this defense and appreciate the efforts bringing in the players they did (Reader, Bell, Waynes, Bynes, Alexander). But the ROI has not been there yet.
