In the 7 games since the bye week, Anarumo's defense held teams to 20 points or less in 4 of them. The benefit of the doubt for Anarumo is he's down some big-name players - Dunlap (traded), Atkins (injury), Reader (injury), Waynes (injury). Mike Brown and Zac Taylor may feel that once Reader and Waynes come back, this could be a Top 15 defense along with a couple draft picks.
He's down a bunch of mid tier players as well in Wren and Topou, let alone losing Glasgow. We have so many players out to injury it's hard to keep up with all of them.
