To me, our lack of ability to get to the QB with 4 men has been our biggest problem and has impacted all areas. It started vs Wash St and it has continued since. Without Hamilton and a healthy Turay we just don't have the athletes to get it done. We make Rudock, Stave, and everyone else look likre Peyton Manning. Our defense, for the most part, can get the opponent to 3rd down, but they just can't get off the field as the opposing QBs have what seems like forever to throw the ball.
This has put an extra burden on our young paper thing secondary and has further hampered Rossi's ability to call the type if game he wants. Moreover, this problem is further exacerbated by the spread teams where we are less able to blitz.
This as also impacted us offensively, which is already challenged to make plays with the loss of Carroo. It takes away from our strength which is running the ball ...in an effort to catch up.
Again, this isn't our only problem, but I think it may be our biggest, and most impactful.
