The last two weeks have been an absolute nightmare. With our pass rushers, and our LOB back there, we are good against most passing offenses but if this...which used to be a strength becomes an achilles heel....we are screwed.
Questions:
1) What the hell has happened the last two weeks?
2) How do we fix it?
Today Coach Carroll said Malcolm Smith could see "elevated opportunities" in the linebacker rotation to help keep the unit at its best.
To me, it goes back to the O-line problems, not running the ball enough (in the Rams game) and thus the D being on the field too long.
Thoughts?
