They aren't coached to immediately get downhill into their gap, they are being coached to flow to the ball.
Problem is:  Jack, Williams, Goode, and Jacobs don't have those natural instincts to diagnose plays and flow to the ball. Because it's taking them longer to diagnose and they are missing Dareus it's giving pulling or climbing guards time and ease to get to the second level and block them out of running lanes. 

The LBs are struggling in the system and the DTs are allowing O-linemen to reach them before they can rect.

There in lies the problem.  This team has no core identity.  They draft talent that does not fit what they are trying to do.  I am no football genius but even I can see Myles Jack (wasn't down) is not a natural middle line backer.

I mean this isn't true. 

You can argue if the picks are good or not but there is a pretty consistent effort in trying to fit the draft picks to the defense (and offense on occasion ) 

Ronnie - strong safety who excels in short zones 
Jack - freak athlete who can cover 
Bryan- freak athlete to disrupt at 3 tech 
Yan - perfect weakside DE 
Quincy - rangy run and hit LB
Ramsey - literally the perfect fit for a corner in this scheme 

Again, you can argue if they were good picks, or if we should have gone to different positions, but it's pretty easy to see them attempting to fill archetypes for the defensive plan.
