Granted our Dline is smaller, and we got gashed even last year up the middle, but there are still techniques that can be used to keep LBs clean. We started to change DT technique late this season by stemming to it, and it seemed to help, but stemming to it like we did isn’t the best way to do it IMO.
Regardless, we need 10 extra pounds on all front seven without losing speed at the OLB position. We also need to coach up tackle/pursuit angles at all positions unfortunately (that really should be innate ability/instinct). And one of the OLBs coming back shouldn’t be on the field … regardless.
