Lack of pass rush

[WreckTheRest]

The loss of Michael Johnson at DE has been more evident than I thought it would have. Jacory Harris could've stood there all night long. Fact is, we have no pass rush. Our linebackers were hesitant when we tried to blitz and did we ever try to blitz with our secondary? Our front four is our WEAK LINK.

I told you guys that if Morgan was ever taken out of the mix like he was tonight, the D was gonna suffer. They just don't have anyone close to his level yet.

You can't play zone without a pass rush. The entire tampa 2 is based on great pass rushing DE. If you give a quarterback time, I don't care how great your secondary is, a medicore quaterback and above will find holes. I have no complaints with our CB's and safeties, I lay the blame on our idiot DC who doesn't put pressure on the QB. Did you notice how when we played zone, it was always to a WR who was wide open and when it was man, it was always to a TE, FB, RB or a screen that was wide open. That isn't bad playing, that is bad coaching.

It seemed like the same way it was from the second quarter in Clemson game. No pass rush, a decent QB rips us apart.

I miss Tenuta, even though he gave up big plays once in a while but at least his scheme is able to disrupt the QB at least and maybe throw a pick or two. That could have easily changed this game.
