You can't blow opponents out if you don't force turnovers. This defense doesn't force many. Even last year they were shutting teams down but they weren't forcing many fumbles or INTs.
The blowouts you normally see in football occur when one particular team keeps turning it over with INTs, fumbles deep in their territory, pick sixes, etc. We don't force many turnovers hence our games are typically closer.
Is it because of Spags' reliance on man-to-man?
