Moving Bronson to OLB from DE created a personnel issue in 2 spots. Injuries and not having guys ready on a team that was considered to have great depth and ability in fall was an issue either due to misevaluation, or playing the wrong guys at times. I can think of trust comments that come to mind. And why some guys did not play enough early, but often late and they performed.

The irony here is that coach Howell said he did not trust certain guys but had to play them, but now many fans do not trust him to get the D ready to play based upon 2014 results. And his own comments opened him up to it. 2014 was a bad year for that defense.
