Quote:So here's a food for thought, since everyone is hating on Gus for the "we tried everything". Constantly, people blame Gus for the weakness of our defense and their inability to defend the pass. But here's a statistics that I came across which...quite frankly...shocked me. SHOCKED me.

 

The Jaguars are tied for 14th in the league in SACKS. Think about that for a second. We are tied for 14th in sacks...ahead of the Jets and their front four, the Bucs and  McCoy, Dallas, Arizona, Baltimore, and the Giants just to name a few.

 

We are 14th in the league in sacks...with our leading sacker being a blitzing cornerback. Our sack stats are:

 

Colvin - 4 (cornerback - scheme sacks)

Odrick - 4 Run Stuffing end

Davis - 3.5 pass rush specialist - scheme sacks usually stunts)

Miller - 3 run stuffing DT

Telvin - 2.5 (rush LB - scheme)

Tyson - 2 (run stuffing end)

Abry Jones - 2 - DT

Skuta - 2 LB

Sergio -1.5 FS

 

Those are our leaders, with our two LEOs with 2 a piece. Uh...you don't think there's a problem here? You don't think that the coaches aren't scheming to get sacks and pressure from all over the defense to make up for the lack of rush? That they aren't trying everything even if it means leaving other areas vulnerable if we don't get home?
