Re: Game Day #4: ATL bounce back or Mariotta Revenge

Through 4 games, our stats (a little skewed because they don't account for tonight's game) are as follows:

Offense: Rush 2nd, Pass 24th
Defense: Rush 16, Pass 28th

JD5 coming back will undoubtedly help with our passing offense, and if we can sustain drives better, that will help our D stay off the field and should help our D overall. But there's a glaring weakness in the back end of our defense, and it simply isn't sustainable for a team that aspires to the playoffs. And our pass rush isn't terrible -- at 10 sacks, we're tied for 5th (although because several teams have 11, 12, and 13 sacks, we're actually 11th on the list). The real culprits seem like the CBs and safeties -- and it sure looked like it watching the last 3 games.
