We have that every year. Is our defense any closer to stopping it?

No, we haven't had a good rec. out of backfield since sproles. Our line has been lacking for a few years. They started to get a little better last year because Jhari had a solid season, but (I have been saying this for awhile) this could be the best offense we have fielded since '11

Just because we put up a ton of crap time yards or Drew is able to make the oline look better than they are, we haven't had the type of offense this group has the potential to be since '11

The offense always makes it work. That's the point. I'm not worried about that. Our defense is very much a work in progress still.

Oh yeah, certainly the more worrisome side of the ball.
