The All-Pro defense has aged and got injured through Bob's tenure. He can't adapt thus the defensive corps is failing miserably.

Those guys were always hurt throughout Suttons tenure.
The biggest problem is that Suttons bread and butter was that dime defense and that relies on our corners to be really aggressive. With the emphasis on defensive holding and PI its impossible for him to run it.
Remember early last year he was the toast of the town. But we kept getting destroyed on jump balls. I don't agree at all with the narrative that he was carried by talent early on. Seems more likely hes trying to adapt to the new nfl but doesn't know how.
