The safety situation is bad. Routt is average. Belcher is horrible if it's a pass play... So yeah there's some holes.
DJ is inconsistent.

It's possible but Dorsey is a terrible pass rusher, and Poe and Powe really haven't shown that much either. We play these guys in sub situations and they haven't pressured the quarterback. The only guys doing it are linebackers, or someone getting there because the coverage holds.
We used to sub Jackson and Dorsey in our nickel in 2009 and they sucked ass trying to get up the field.
Simply put, we have some good run defenders on the team, but really only two pass rushers, and in a passing league that's going to kill you.
