We spent a ton of money last season. We were one of the top spenders. Put your patience hat on. Teams always over pay on the first day.

They were able to do that because they have great safety play.
When you know the opposing team isn't gonna be trying to throw deep, you can prepare your DL to get their hands up to knock down the short passes and for your corners to jump the short routes.
If we had added Byrd, we could have mimicked that approach.
