We have been worried about DL recruiting the last couple of years and it is showing now. Unfortunately we will probably be worse on defense next year. Should improve after that.

Pass rush was lack luster all year. Williams was great but that was bout it. You can’t replace your entire secondary AND suck at getting pressure. I’m proud of this team and hate that they laid an egg in the title game. They were better than that score but sometimes shite happens.

Nobody wants to admit it. Linebacker as well.

I didn't see an arse beating coming, but I did know we were a bit suspect on defense. The lack of outside rushers and the injuries to DB's really hurt us in this game.

I don't think the DL was the problem. It was the defensive backfield.

It was the perfect storm. A ton of staff turnover plus losing guys to the NFL. If Minkah and Payne had come back like Clemsons DL, the whole unit would've been better.

And Tua's picks didn't help any either.
