Stat check

Mike,

What is their rank in sacks of opposing QB? I would imagine they are at the bottom of the barrell. I blame this mostly on coaching. They hardly ever blitz or even stunt and give every opposing QB an eternity to throw. (Denver game being the excpetion) When is the coaching staff going to learn that you can't beat the better teams without some kind of pressure on QB?

Mike,
Clearly, red zone offense and defense are a glaring problem. I would think the offense part should correct itself a bit, as Cassel and the offense seem to tighten up when they get in the red zone, and hopefully in time that would improve.

The red zone D, however, was a problem last year too! I cannot recall many deficiencies throughout the BB era that carried on from one season to the next. What do you see as the biggest contributing factor to this?
