Sutton was a part of the Rex Ryan defensive philosophy, no? That ain't bend-but-don't-break.
I would think that we had some talent deficiencies here that prevented anything else AS WELL AS a low scoring offense for several of the seasons. So you can't take chances really, because the offense can't respond. So, you end up playing conservatively on both sides.
Not saying that's the whole story, but played a part. Last year, injuries and age just tanked the talent level and we got exposed.
I'm not sure how much more you can revamp the starting 11 in one offseason than we have. I bet it's a lot better.
