I don't know why it took so long, but we eventually made 2 huge changes that were perfect.

1). Our DB's were giving up the WR screens and quick passes as we were lined up 8-10 yards off the line of scrimmage. We changed that in the 2nd half as they don't have anyone that can get separation in our DB's.

2). We started bringing our OLB's on out to in stunts and interior line gap blitzes. The pocket started collapsing and combined with our press coverage on the receivers, George had no time and nowhere to go with the ball.

Our Inside LB's need help in run defense as do our ends in giving up contain, but it was good to see a change made by the staff in the 3rd quarter that essentially eliminated their passing offense.
