I say rush defense. We're making HOF's out of the opposing running backs Blaine plays ok, but our rush defense is horrible Edit- Added NO PASS RUSH Thoughts?

GM can be fixed. Unfortunately the owner is staying put and there's nothing we can do about it. His family is continuing to profit from this team so he has no reason to sell.

Yeap poor owner hires poor gm and it trickles down. Harbaugh was a lucky hire and look how that turned out. Our owner told us 8-8 was unacceptable

Its still early but I see some of the same issues that O'Neil had in Cleveland, struggling mightily against the run.

The loss of Ian Williams at NT has been huge. Also no pass rush from OLB hasnt helped either.

Other than Balke. Its playmakers on offense and pass rush on defense. Also lacking a true #1 corner and a hard hitting safety
