When you actually look up and down the roster, how much defensive talent do we actually have? It may have finally caught up to us. Aside from peters, Houston, and Jones, do we have anyone that rates above "solid"? Sorenson is an overachiever, Gaines is horrible, Ragland is horrible, Logan is a downgrade from Poe, DJ is washed up, Murray is a massive downgrade from Berry, Mitchell is OK but we need Nelson in there.
Andy Reid has loaded his offense with toys. We've ignored the defense for way too long. While I wish we were more versatile on scheme, I think it's a little overblown to think that blitzing more will solve anything. The problem is talent.
