Is it just me or is our defensive line playing slow uninspired football! They aren't staying in their lanes and look totally outclassed!

Also a small point - let's go on a quick count once in a while to keep the D line honest - and run a quick opener straight ahead!

It's just you, the d-line and whole defense have been on the field way too much this game if the offense does not pick it up in the second half there will be more of the same.

Really? we have actually put a few drives together. OP is right just watch how the D line is firing off the ball on the snap. McCuller's looks in slow motion coming out of his stance.

Everyone looks like they're running in quick sand.....except the guys they're defending.

How can anyone talk mess on the D line when Corey Miller is hustling hard? I hate to hate but Mccullors ain't no NFL guy and Smith has never impressed me. Daniel Hood is what he is---an average player.

most teams have a 3 or 4 deep ...the best teams are virtually interchangeable in their depth

We have maybe a 2 deep ...that is stocked with freshmen...huge fall off.

We have no depth on the D front. None . If depth was not important ...the best teams would not have crazy depth and be known to play 12 linemen a game .

defensive depth issues are most notable late in the season ...due to the physical wear and tear .

This ...coupled with a very young secondary ...is what you are seeing. The only way this can be fixed is through recruiting . Give it a couple of seasons.

I agree! Our D line cannot get any pressure on the QB or contribute to the running game. The offensive line play is pretty bad also. There is no run blocking & Missouri can get pressure on our qb with just 3 lineman. It's the linemen that are allowing this game go down the drain.

yes Mccullors should be able to play 80 snaps a game ...because most guys his size can ....much sarcasm ..:crazy:
