Am I wrong in thinking MLB is our biggest weakness on defense?

Good god were we spoiled with Luke. We need a QB on the defense who can cover in the middle between the sticks. Whitehead is terrible and Shaq has never been able to cover anything in his career. Chinn is basically turning out to be what we had hoped Shaq would become when drafting him. We have been dropping Burns into coverage because our linebackers are such a liability. Only problem with that is Burns is also our best pass rushers and we aren't generating much pressure without him. Burns, Brown and YGM look like a very promising young d-line group. It really sucks thinking what could have been if Luke never retired.

Come draft time, If there isn't an elite QB or LT prospect available I would not be mad with a stud MLB. Just Look at what Devin White has done for Tampa's defense paired with Lavonte David. I know many of us hated the Luke pick originally but look how that turned out.

For what it's worth, I don't generally see a lack of effort on Whitehead's part.

Boston sometimes looks like he's making "business decisions".

I just think Boston is soft. He played like this back in college too.  Whitehead is just athletically limited. It's frustrating because I think Boston has the tools to be really good. Whitehead doesn't.

Boston has at least two horrible plays a week, Whiteheads mistakes often result in less yardage/scoring than Bostons. I still can't believe we extended him at what we did...  the guy still can't executed a basic tackle.

Watching him hold back while a guy caught an easy pass in front of him today about made me go through the roof.

      Didn’t watch today but….

      31st rushing D and 8 carries by Rico is coaching.  Rico is easily the best offensive weapon right now and it’s not really close.  *literally everyone knows Dalton is washed, horrible and shouldn’t even be a backup QB.   Drive 1? ZERO carries.  Coaching.  Drive 2 - Rico was playing great.   Did Canales lean into that or go for “balance”? Coaching. Drive 3 - ZERO carries.  Coaching  Drive 4 - 1 carry and opted for Jimmy Horn gadget rush (you can’t stick  with the Horn repetitive gadget runs each week and that’s not a better idea than getting Rico going)  Drive 5 - basically Dalton heavy as the half expired.  I don’t need to watch a game to know it’s coaching.  The gameplan wasn’t about setting Rico up to go off on a trash rush D.  It was bullshit harmony balance of the rush and the pass and making Hubbard feel good.

      In the locker room after the Dallas game, multiple  players said FEED him when Canales mentioned Rico stats. That already made me think even the locker room wouldn't care if Rico got the touches rn. This is on Canales indeed and I agree n the Qb take.  We aren't winning  bc of Bryce  but he has been managing it. Had the Jets had Qb aptitude,  we could've probably  lost that game too. All they would've needed is 14 points. Regardless, we got a team  that's being built up and that position needs an overhaul.

      I think he was trying to mimic the Lions with Montgomery and Gibbs. They are just more of the exception to the rule and Brooks was too much of a gamble to be a Gibbs type player. The Lions also didn’t sign Montgomery and draft Gibbs until their offense was nearly set. It was more of a luxury take the offense to the next level type of deal.
