The real issues imo are…

Slow and soft LB, a lack of team leadership and key injuries.

Someone will eventually step up….we’ll get healthy (I hope) but sheeesh..our LB core could use some strength and speed

I heard Brian Bosworth is avaiable

And here I was praying for a better O-Line, one that could protect Geno and establish a run game. Now I gotta start praying for better LBers too??!!

I was hoping better LB play would mostly fix the run game

After the last few games I'm seriously concerned about our DL. Williams, Reed, Jones, Mafe, and Hall seem to be getting blown off the ball on running plays - I was hoping the interior DL would be stout

Yea need a whole lot of talent. Don’t forget DL help past Murphy and Williams. Cause the rest get pushed ahead 5 yards.

LB was a huge need going into the offseason. They didn't address it in the draft and didn't really address it in FA either, it seems.

MM needs a Roquan level player for this defense. We don't have that.
