We need depth in the front 7, and a free safety who doesn't make you pay when you don't get to the QB when you blitz.

I agreed Milk Personnel does make a difference. Just think we have five probowlers on defense, actually six if you count flowers(ha). So six of the eleven on the field are probowlers. That's more then half. Probably more then any other team in the league and we sink from a top five defense to probably mid-late twenties in a eight week span. That's what pisses me off. I wonder in the History of the NFL has that ever been done. We've given up the second most yardage in that span, only the cowboys have given up more. I agree with you the D-line is gassed, its Bobs job to rotate the players for breathers. I know the depth isn't great, but throw in some fresh legs. I think powe could hold his own for a few plays. Other teams are finding ways around it. I'll throw this in there even though it may not mean shit to some. JAWS was on NFL matchup this morning talking about the Chiefs Defense. He said Sutton man press Defense is too predictable and teams are all over it. He said its fixable but he needs to adjust. How many weeks now since the first time we were killed on crossing patterns and its still happening.
