This is correct! I will say that we do definitely need to build upon our secondary, that is quite obvious, but we do need not only a better pass rush, but a consistent one. Building a system that has obvious weak points is never the answer nor should it ever be. Gregg Williams has had success (for the most part) because he's been good with scheming his defense, but once the offenses figure out the schemes (like they have appeared to do this year) then your weaknesses are exposed and you allow teams to come back on you -- teams that we should've put away early.
