My response was to rushing the QB not defending the run. Stay on track here.
But since you went there I will say that you are still incorrect in what you think you saw. The run D came together after the first Titan game when they sat Pennel and didn't play Ragland. After that they played Pennel and Ragland on running downs and we were able to stop the run and still defend the pass well enough when a team tried to switch it up trying to catch us off guard. Spags rotated Nnadi, Jones and Saunders next to Pennel for the most part but sometimes he even put Jones at DE next to Pennel and or Nnadi.
