This article does a great job of explaining why the NFL is looking to Fangio and his proteges to confuse quarterbacks.

I don't disagree at all - the DL just isn't as strong as I'd like it to be, or anywhere close to it.
But the roster is what the roster is. So it's up to Spags to make the pieces work. And given that he has a mediocre (at best) front 4 to work with, he's gotta take some high risk, high reward shots.
And sometimes they don't work out. Sometimes the bear eats you.
And it isn't just because 'Spags Sucks!!' - the other guys are pretty damn good sometimes.
