Where this team needs to improve

Welcome to the board yungbreesus! Really good post. I can tell you’re going to be a good contributor here.

Regarding dropping D-Linemen into coverage, it’s stood out a couple of times in recent games and always makes me scratch my head. Last night, 3rd and long, Cam Jordan lines up as an off-the-ball LB and drops into coverage. Prescott easily runs for the first down. In last week’s game against the Falcons I noticed Marcus Davenport on one play lined up the same way and covering a WR down the seam.

I can’t judge too harshly though because this is the best defensive front seven we’ve had in a long time and they’re really clicking. Sometimes I just wonder if all the credit should go to the position coaches Ryan Nielsen and Mike Nolan and is Dennis Allen’s playcalling the weakness.
