RAC is certainly beginning his career as our HC with a high risk move, but I'm definitely rooting for him to succeed. I really liked the fact that RAC said he thought Poe was the top DT before the combine- so he's not just looking at Poe as a combine hero.
Question: we know our DE's had good stats against the rush, but our D was one of the worst D's against rush overall. So where was the weak link? Was it only the DT spot? I'm curious.

I think Romeo explained part of it when he talked about getting gouged by the running game when we were in sub packages.
