How are you going to stop…

Jeff Blake - Carl Pickens - Darnay Scott - KiJana Carter?
Carson - Johnson - Housch - Rudi
Dalton - AJ blah blah blah

This franchise is deja vu all over again…

Offence is the problem.... the defence have choked the end of both games... but give up 23 and 20 points and you should be 2-0. Offence had the ball all game against Pittsburgh and scored 20. They had one good drive today. Atrocious.

The defense faced bad offenses. They get no pressure. Against an elite qb, they'll get shredded.

They need to build a good Offensive Line. They spend money on these old guys like Collins or Rieff that are washed up, but there afraid to draft a O lineman early because the last guy (Price ) was a flop. We knew we needed O lineman and in the first two rounds of the draft we selected secondary guys, and next year they will select a DE in the first round. Until they learn to take the O Line seriously, they will struggle.

For us old timers who have been around a while. I’ve heard this through so many regimes.

“Oooh I’d hate to be a D coordinator trying to stop XYZ”

And invariably they always stop them because the line is never good or physical enough.

Collins isn’t old. I think they were hoping for an upgrade and also a leader with Reiff
