Cmon guys we see this every year
Other defenses are plateau from beginning of season to end, but we are not and haven't been in years, our D's have always started weaker/slower and about halfway through the season, evolved into what they truly are for that season
I think this year it's going to happen earlier because of the small amount of turnoever this past offseason, but this is not our true playoff defense, so let's hold off on the comparisons at the moment
I swear its like the X-mas Frosty the Snowman cartoon. Everytime Frosty wakes up he says, "Happy Birthday" and has no clue what happened 15 minutes ago. People need to use history as guide here.
While it is reasonable to be critical of the pass rush, Ryan, Malcom and a few other players I do think they are still trying to figure out their personnel groupings and as always are more inclined to give up the 6yrd pass and not the 60 yard one
This D always starts slow and builds as the year goes on.
