My gut feeling is that our run defense problems are tied directly to Lou Anarumo

The killer is, they also allowed 4.7 ypc in '18 with Marvin/Austin, same as they did in '19.  That would indicate that it is more of a personnel issue than a scheme issue.

You have to go back to 2016 ? I believe it is ? To find decent defensive numbers for this team. I don't doubt for a second that Lou is not the best coach. But I believe personnel as you say has been a big issue as well.
