Tuiaki is counting on the front to get “enough” pressure while blanketing the

Receivers with many different DBs. You only bring pressure from the back at select times.

It is actually very similar to how Utah typically plays defense. They have a better defensive line overall and that makes it work better.

I get people who get frustrated, but it is working more or less so far.

Tennessee wins in a blow out if Guarantano was a competent passer.

ZW missed wide open WRs on the 1st two drives alone. Goes both ways.

Difference being that Tennessee had a great pass rush.

That first miss on the 1st drive was not because of pressure. Other misses too.

Was really disappointing. Could have scored on the first play and deflated the

It only goes both ways if you have two average QBs.

Let's be honest, ZW has been average at best so far this season

100% agree with all points you made. And still stand by ZW "average thus far"

Your right about looking great against the Cupcakes.

Yes but it seems like he has been improving just over the course of the two

Yes I'm excited/very optimistic about his future, but hes still been avg at best

No..it’s just fans not understanding his defensive philosophy

Maybe if there's a short field. But if the D is giving up 65 yds per drive

No doubt their DL is better, but Utah blitzes significantly more often than us.

I don’t think so. But I don’t have any stats

You think we blitz as much as Utah does?

The biggest problem has been lack of DEs

Regardless, it's not an enjoyable defense to watch. It's painful.
