If anyone has a good reason why our D absolutely sucks, I would love to hear it. Please refrain from the usual excuses like youth, injury, etc. Why does it SUCK?
No DT depth to stop the rush. Only Vickers left from those who were on the 2 deep to start the season. DEs who are underweight having to play on line. Getting manhandled at the LOS. DEs are doing ok led by Burnett. Kongbo playing out of position.
No LB depth to stop the runs. None of the original starters are playing...Maybin, Kirkland, Smith, Sapp. McDowell has also been out some games. Only Bynum is available from 2 deep...Jumper was a walk-on and Bates and Elliott Barry were third string and Buteli is a freshman.
CBs are unable to shut down opponents and make big plays. Foreman, Moseley, Martin, Buchanan are underachieving. Sutton out most of year and just now trying to come back.
Safeties, kelly out some of year, Warrior a freshman, Austin hobbled and Aberbathy playing ok. NB Gaulden also not playing up to expectations.
Special teams, PRs Sutton out most of year, Kamara, hurt some, Smith, questionable, Callaway the future. KOR, Evan Barry hurt, Boyd, ok, Abernathy, no, Callaway, the future.
PK, Medley, 50/50
P Daniel, the best.
