Your ILB pair should balance more, 1 leaning pass D effective and 1 leaning Run D effective.  We really haven’t had that to make a proper evaluation IMO. So the only logical thing we can do is point fingers in the meantime. I get that. But it doesn’t fix our deficiencies.We need a stellar LB who can drop into coverage. Blake is NOT a coverage Backer, but as you pointed out he’s being used as such.  That’s called being spread thin.Raven Green was the best compliment to Blake thus far, but he’s not an ideal fit either.  I all but can promise you.. if we had a true above average coverage ILB We wouldn’t be having this debate about who’s at fault.Goodson is nothing more than a “depth” patch, which we also needed. That didn’t correction  the problem.I was going to say, the next best thing meantime is to use one of our bigger Safeties. I think we’ve dabbled there already to no avail. I’m perplexed what’s going on with Burks who I believe was supposed to be our answer. It’s the million dollar ? Right now.</blockquote>
