[QUOTE="boger2337, post: 772219, member: 4089"] Getting pressure on the QB means NOTHING when our DBs are getting BURNED. Idk how many times we had to play soft coverage because our DBs were getting toasted by the WRs. Duke and Pitt both missed out on about 6-8 open passes due to bad QB throws or pressure from our DLine. Im talking 3-6 yards of separation on a fly route. No press up front to knock them off their timing or anything. Playing press coverage helps your DLine with more time to get to the QB. We had Slants/screens/ fly go routes thrown on us at will this year. Press at the line and play physical football. Too many times I felt like we were in Ted Roofs defense. When Collins came in I imagined NFL level blitz packages with the LBs and Safeties coming in full speed, CBs pressing all WRs, and a fast DLine that causes "mayhem". I have yet to see anything even remotely close to that. We started forcing our offense to pass more even though we are still built to run the ball. Why aren't we forcing the defense to start playing like we said we were going to. We look like a bend don't break pray for a turnover type defense. I fully expected our secondary/LBs to be sack/mayhem machines as it adds a level of speed to the defense. I haven't seen much of that other than Kaleb Oliver who was by far the best member in the secondary outside of Swilling when it came to getting to the QB and hitting hard. Juanyeah, Riq were underwhelming. Walton was average to above average. Tre Swilling rarely got thrown at other than screen passes and he knew to use the sideline like ANY player should know. Just saying I'm curious if "better players" are going to fix some of these issues. [/QUOTE]
