Jack Del Rio will take Manusky’s dumpster fire and turn this defense around. He’s taken several team’s defenses from near the bottom to very close to the top! We have some talented personnel that just need to be coached, motivated and instructed to reach their potential. I bet a guy like Sweat will double his sacks next year.

I didn't like Manusky's defenses either, but the sack rate ranked 4th in 2019.

That's not no pressure on the QB.
I think it's more accurate to say the pressure was inconsistent, especially against good qbs who could beat a blitz.
I can't find the numbers right off, those with a pff sub probably could, but I believe we blitzed alot. I also believe those blitz's weren't good against good QBs.
I also don't believe the blitzes were coached well and timed well. Good teams picked them up.
I also agree Del Rio is going to be a huge improvement. The two just have very different styles.
