Our run d suckage not the DT's fault

[panther4life]

Anybody who believes differently is not paying attention. Week in and week out the big runs are going to the outside and many still want to blame the DT's and it's quite sickening to see you guys really believe it's on them.

Our linebackers, safeties and ends are getting gobbled up by fb's,t.e' s and other times just flat out whiff or unable to bring the rb down with solid tackling.

yeah our backers are getting engulfed by blockers because nobody worries about stopping our DTs, guards are consistently getting to the 2nd level which is always a disaster when you're trying to stop the run

it's at least partially their fault, though we need some serious help at OLB as well

Give it a shot, I dare you..but bring some kind of knowledge or logic!

When interior linemen are 5+ yards up field bulldozing LBs it probably means your DTs are not very good.

I think it is both the DTs and LBers fault at this point. Blame both groups. BTW it ain't the secondary job to stop the run unless need to as a last line of defense. So it is the fault of the DTs and LBers. DTs are just get pushed around and not even trying and our LBers are just to slow. But the thing is the DTs are more to blame the the LBers tho. DTs must get in the holes and stuff the run. But if our DTs don't command double team all the time. The oline ends up getting to the second level and blocking our LBers and making them useless. So more blame goes to the DT then the LBers. But both groups overall deserve the blame.

Anderson is the only LB worth a damn but the dts are doing some of the damage too they get penetration but at the cost of gap intergrity.

I think its safe to say that everyone on defense except Gamble, Godfrey, Johnson, and Hardy have not been very good this year.

Étienne Légaré has 4 sacks on the year.

Do you have a DVR? Please tell me when this happened? I can tell you numerous times when linebackers and safeties and defensive ends totally missed tackles or failed to bring down the rb and had nothing to do with interior lineman gobbling them up.
