Agreed.  D line looks reactive not aggressive.

DT was a missing position this year, that is one that needs a huge upgrade.

It is also scheme. The stretch zone cutback was killing us all night. The D would get sucked into flowing in one direction and leave a gaping hole on the backside for the cutback. Both the LB's and DB's were missing tackles at the line of scrimmage as well.
