Because all teams line 9 in the box and dare us to throw it deep and we can't. Brunnell cannont convert when it counts and causes the d to stay on the field for long periods of time. the d is bad but brunnel is worst

What causes the d to stay on the field is the fact that they can't stop the other team. They are average at best against the run. Horrible in coverage and can't rush the passer. Brunnel can be criticized for a lot of things but I think blaming him for the way the defense has played is a bit much.
