So what do you do?
After the Patriots defense gave up a Superbowl record 41 points and 500+ yards... BB had an entire offseason to fix it however the trend continues into the new season.
Texans: 20 points given up, 300+ yards of offense
Jaguars: 31 points given up, 450+ yards of offense
Lions: 26 points given up, 400+ yards of offense
So let's say you step into BB's shoes, how do you fix this train wreck of a defense so far.
[We'll save the offensive discussion for another thread, I know that's an issue too but at least we are adding Josh Gordon in Week 4 and Edelman in week 5.]
Defense looks soft and can't get off the field on 3rd downs. Run defense was completely exposed vs the Lions. Has the league found the blueprint to beat our D or is there an answer? What would you change about how we defend. Alignment, personnel, play calls?
