[QUOTE="HouseDivided, post: 859800, member: 4378"] Fundamentals need to improve drastically and we'd be a much more competent team overall. Offensively, it starts with the O-line. Better leverage, quick first steps and protection pickups when the defense throws something at them like stunts. We seem to continue to have trouble knowing our assignments on the O-line when it comes to stunts, rolling gaps by the D-line and delayed blitzes. We also need more athletic linemen. We've gotten more size, but theathleticism is still not where it needs to be as far as getting out in space and creating lanes nor getting to the second level of the defense from the point of attack. We are also still lacking truly elite perimeter weapons. We had/have a good stable of backs but the O-line issues mitigate their explosiveness nearly every game. Defensively: oh boy, where do I begin.....We need bigger, better bodies on the D-line and depth....much better depth. We get pushed around and swallowed up at the point of attack as we are undersized and frankly, not very athletic. 0Our LBs have been very poor in coverage and their run fit assignments/gap integrity. We need our version of a Nakobe Dean for Ugag. A sideline to sideline guy who can make plays, drop in coverage and rush the. A guy who is a 3 down type of player. Our secondary is a nightmare. I could write a 5 page diatribe on their issues, so I'll simply say, we need better players and at least 1 lock down DB & leave it at that. [/QUOTE]
