The complete absence of a running game will mean that the D is gonna have to come through in the post season a time or two, especially since we arent getting a bye. We are aware of how critical Frank Clark is.
That's why "HE WAS CHIPPED!!" or "He ALMOST made a play!" Doesn't move the needle for a guy who was to anchor the defense and was a 'potential DPOY...'

How can we even make much of an assessment based on today though?
He basically played one half. And in the half that he did play, they were running it down our throats (away from Clark almost exclusively).
That 2nd half was gonna be his first real shot to rush the passer a little bit... never really came together with the injury obviously.
