Defensively the team's biggest weakness to me is at LB. I suppose they don't really stack up there, either. Franklin and Speed should both be gone, play Carlies and Harrison if you need to. Olubi is an option as well, or draft someone.
That said, yes, for the most part, I feel like the defense is better than what the numbers indicate, in large part because in over half of the games, the offense was putting the defense in terrible spots. How many games did opponents have 2:1 TOP advantage this year? Some of that was on the defense, more of it was on the offense having far too many 3 and outs and far too little success. Also I agree with most here that Bradley's scheme is not the best at maximizing the skillsets of our players. I think with a different DC, the same defenders would perform better.

dude even Buckner said they were fucking terrible this year.
can't tackle, play the run, rush the passer, or cover anyone. what the fuck are you smoking?
