OL,DL. If there was any flaw (that I can see) in the way Caldwell has attempted this rebuild, is that he hasn't done it from the inside out. Finding elite talent in the trenches is something he's struggled with since this rebuild has begun. He put a rookie QB behind an inexperienced OL and the result was 50+ sacks. If your line has above average talent across the board you can let your young QB lean on the running game. We're not able to do that with present personnel.


Same can be said on the other side of the ball except he's relied on older vets to generate a pass rush and this season is showing the results of that philosophy as evidenced by yesterday's game. Zero pressure generated by the front 4. Yes he spent our first round pick on Fowler, but he waited until the 6th round before picking another DL player when there was talent available in earlier rounds. And seriously, was 1 guy really expected to make that much of a difference in the sack total with our best DL still hurt from last year and the rest of them another year older?
