Oak posted a stat yesterday on the D ...

Not allowing a RB to reach 100 yards since 2017? That's insane/incredible considering the RB they have faced. Elite level back bottled up.

Scouting/drafting/acquiring good free agents/coaching (Nielsen) and players making plays on Sundays.

That D line is nasty. Cam J was great coming off the edge yesterday.

Great Point, but I'd put it in this order Coaching, Players Making Plays GameDay, Coaching, Free Agents (including UDRFA), Coaching, Committment to DL in the draft, Coaching...

A lot of that has to do with the fact that coaches have backs that split carries. Everyone wants to run the running back by committee thing now days.
