Half of the Shula era maybe. 2004 and 2005 were incredible defenses with NFL players all over the field.

So half of Shula's defenses were better than this one? That's depressing.

I mean, it's honestly concerning. I get that injuries have gutted our LB corps and that's understandable. Should get better there as we get Evans, Jennings and Moses back. However, this DL isn't playing in the opponents backfield AT ALL. And that's with 5-star Payne, 5-star Hand and a glut of 4-stars like Davis playing. Very few tackles for loss, pressures or sacks from those guys. Johnny Dwight honestly seems to be in the backfield more when he gets in than any of those guys. Starting to make me wonder about the Dunbar hire, quite frankly.
