Maybe to some percentage. But c'mon. Its completely unrealistic to expect the defensive line to get "pressure" on all or even most plays.

Here's the kicker.

Williams was getting burned so bad, the benched him and put Crawley in. Then Crawley was getting torched so bad, the took Lat off Julio and put him on the Ridley. A play or so later, Crawley gets torched by Julio Jones.

Lat wasn't getting torched, and he was playing with the same damn defensive line in front of him.

I don't buy the d-line BS. I understand that it can be a factor. But I just don't buy that's it's THE REASON or even most of it. NFW.

Exactly. Lattimore was on one of the best receivers of all time and still wasn’t getting torched. Has anybody ever heard of a “coverage sack”? Probably not since we never cause them.
