If they dont, it will be tough for the offense to score with a long field every single time. But obviously the issue here is the offense, not the defense. They did their job, if the offense is semi-decent. If the offense is what it was yesterday, the defense needs to do more.

I compare it to our run game which looks good on 1st or 2nd down, when Robinson or Etienne break a nice run. It gives us the illusion that the run game is good. While I'm seeing our offensive line getting no push and the RBs just find a nice crevice on their own to make something happen.

Our defense looks good until it's 3rd down and time to stuff that run or get that team off the field! Teams have converted down after down for 70 or 80 yard drives these past weeks. Philly drove like 90 yards, and the Texans drove like 80.
