This kind of gargantuan dropoff doesn't happen overnight without a real reason.

Never made a Pro Bowl, never made an All Pro team.
No, he was never anything approaching the impact player that Khalil Mack was. Are you all really that hung up on the fact that he happened to kick the holy shit out of us last year? Or is this just an attempt to double down when the excuses aren't doing the job?
When you can't say "well he's actually been pretty good!" anymore (I still can't believe people were actually doing that 3 weeks in), you have to just justify the struggles instead.
Dominant players will succeed regardless of the system. Merely good players fail because they're not in an ideal situation all the time. Frank Clark is the latter. He's not a guy you build your defense around - he's the guy you add if your defense is specifically suited for him.
