To defend Andre Carter because he's a 'speed guy' and has trouble getting around 350-pound linemen doesn't speak well for him.

The argument that our D-line has trouble with the "better" offensive lines is getting quite tiresome. The idea is to be able to compete with good O-lines. If we continue to excuse the capability of our defensive front four because we can't compete with the "better offensive lines" then we might as well write this year off.
