I disagree. This defense is horrible. The only thing that justifies Sutton keeping his job is the amount of ppg his defenses give up. But still.....I’m not so sure about that and I’ll get to that later.
if you really look at this defense, they give up yards at will. So easy to knock off and push around, lacks attitude, adjustments, players aren’t put into position to succeed, etc. Yeah there is some good talent here and there but also some dead weight as well.
*But yeah I’ve had it though with this defense because blowing two leads in the playoffs of a combined 46 points definitely outweighs the average amount of ppg they give up in the regular season.
Maybe keeping our young def players is or isn’t the better option? But we do need draft picks, especially a 1st rounder since we compromised our own to Buffalo for Mahomes. Gotta give up something to get something sometimes and maybe we are better off trading one of our young players?
