I'd say we had really 1 decent year of defense from Sutton. And even in that we blew a huge lead in the playoffs.
Sutton's defenses over the last few years have taken on a pattern of playing soft. I am just a bit concerned that in all the defensive issues, the coach of the defense is not being looked at as part of the problem.
We cannot continue playing a 3 man rush, playing CB's 10 yards off on 3rd and medium, consistently giving up 3rd and long and then claiming victory because after a 7 minute drive we held the other team to a FG.
That hasn't really worked well.

If we go by the statistics, they've had really good defenses. If we go by Pete's feelings, maybe not.
The 14,15,16 defenses were pretty damn good.
