More like 7, I believe.

We lost a 2 deep at the DL: Kevin Robbins, Darious Commissiong, Jimmy Kitchen, Anthony Williams, JHD to academics, Travin Henry who was moved to DE, Justin Akins.

We've rightly given a lot of credit to Ted Roof for the defensive turnaround this year, but how about the job Mike Pelton has done with creating a serviceable defensive line after all those losses? I hope part of CPJ's contract negotiations are making sure Pelton sticks around a while.

Yes I believe if you get down into the weeds, the DL's play was most key to the turnaround. It always seems to make everyone else better.

First five games folks ran at will on us..last seven when we starting using lb pressure we were pretty decent.Stopping Chubb last half was good example of how far we have come.
