We've had the best Run Defense we've had in the Diaz era this season...
And with the emergence of Rousseau, Ford, Nesta & Miller, I don't see how yall are so critical of Stroud. The DLine has been the strongest unit on our team this season.
We have 25 sacks & 51TFL's on the season, that's pretty **** good. Plus you have to factor in how much play calling affects the performance of the DL's, I mean Baker has had our most dynamic pass rushers dropping back in coverage on multiple plays & we for whatever reason are always going with 3-man fronts on 3rd down only rushing 3.
I do agree that Simpson is a much better DL coach than Stroud, I'm not arguing that, I'm just saying on Defense they're not the issue this season.
The heat needs to be on Banda, Baker, Patke & Rumph more so than Stroud IMO.
