A month ago there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth about how our lack of defensive tackles was going to sabotage the team. Marinelli was crucified for not valuing the big nasties in the middle. Our front office was vilified for not getting a 340 pound thumper in the middle.
Six games into the season the defense is #2 in points allowed. We’ve given up 3.5 yard per rush attempt. I guess the guys inside knew a bit more than the guys on the outside.
The angst predated discovering the guy who saved them - Antwaun Woods. You must remember, back when Jihad Ward was being talked about as "the answer".
It certainly wasn't "a month ago".
