Assigning Blame: Pass Rush
Just wanted to know what you guys thought was the main reason for the teams pass rushing woes this season. If possible I wouldn't mind seeing a poll. Anyway what do you guys attribute as the main reason for lack of a pass rush?
- The Scheme -Greg Blache is too commited to stoping the run and in turn doesn't give our DE's enough freedom to set up opposing offensive lineman.
- The offense - is preventing us from getting leads big enough that our front four can rarely let loose and unload on opposing offenses. As a result teams are able to keep us honest by using the run since we can't generate a lead big enough for opponents to consider abandoning the ground game.
- The 4-3 - Teams are starting to figure our the 4-3 and everyone knows that the 3-4 is better for getting after the passer in today's NFL.
- The personnel - Either your blaming Taylor and Carter outright or you feel the defense's inability to get a good push up the middle is going a long way towards preventing our DE's from getting to the Quarterback.
- Other - Anything from blaiming the front office to the possibility that space aliens are using graviton beems that fire on our players at the most inconvient moments.
Personally I'm starting to think the offense is to blame.
