We should be constructive critisism for there play on the field imo & not just say that's good enough, it's not.

Exactly. It's not good enough. I'm not saying they are bad players, but they have to step it up in passing situations. Their lack of production is too much for the rest of the team to overcome, and Poe isn't going to do them any favors, at least not in his first year or two. There isn't a NT on the planet that will help Dorsey and Jackson win 1vs1. They have to do it themselves, and to this point, neither have shown that they can.
We're not asking for the world here. Something like 4-5 sacks each. We need them to produce that if this D is going to take the next step forward.
The problem with CP's members is that "They just have to clog the lanes" has been beaten into so many people's heads.
It's PART of their job, not their only job.
Even if Houston picks up where he left off and Hali continues to be Hali, it won't be enough to make this defense Elite. Not until those two step it up.
