Seeing something like this makes me wonder if it's not a bad idea to move Landon Collins over to LB. We have some young safety depth, but our linebacker play is so poor in pass, that having something a little more familiar in pass coverage (albeit not his forte) may help the defense "catch up", to these plays.

Just seems like the LB's are lost out there, and if we aren't generating pressure or blocking lanes, then their are clear windows to a TE or slot guy is a disasater.

I would think also the D-Line needs to really get their hands up inside passing lanes after they count the mental clock around how many seconds until their typical release is. You don't need 100 sacks to be an effective defense, but you need to disrupt the play.
