Defense had some tackling issues last year, too, occasionally, but made some timely big plays and seemed to play a lot better in the playoffs. Biggest difference this year is lack of a second rusher and secondary injuries. Have to remember how many injuries are back there, too.
Offense just looks so out of sync this year. Not sure how you fix some of that in the short frame. O line is not going to magically improve dramatically even after a few injured players return, although any continuity would help. RBs are pedestrian, and Kupp, Jefferson, Woods/OBJ > Kupp, Robinson, Skow.
Not a bad team. Have some talent, just not executing on offense, so no rhythm, and just not the same focus as last year.
