Another game without a sack

As much as I have thrown all our edges under the bus. I’ve noticed that ALL the edges at one point are just standing there watching the play. Not backing out in coverage, just standing there watching. This horrendous edge play may be result of some terrible coaching. Rashan Gary is awful no matter who’s coaching him.
 
To me, sacks are a smidget if the problem. Being smart enough to make a play is the elephant in the room. The game was almost won without a sack but the Cowboys always find a way to “Keystone Cop” a win.
I have to disagree. I think the lack of sacks is the biggest problem in the room. QBs have all day to throw and just about every pass play is a big play on our defense. We're not even moving the QB out of the pocket.

When we had a pass rush you saw the TOs as a result.
 
I don't know how they're even going to fix it. They have to give up major resources to get someone good. Other than that, we need to learn how to blitz (and we're currently terrible at that), or Ez needs to suddenly gain a new gear to actually reach the QB or Lawrence needs to breakout.

Entering the year the pass rush was my biggest concern. And it's worse than I ever imagined. I have hope the secondary, DL and LBs will improve. I don't see it with this rush though
