No.
I should've titled the thread "this one's DEFINITELY on the lack of run defense."

It’s kind of like watching a traffic cone try and tackle someone.

That's a lot of years, and a lot of player and coach turnover, to keep seeing the same issues pop up over and over and over with tackling/intensity/lack of key plays. I always thought it was a culture thing, and hoped adding some successful players from successful programs would help turn things around, but it seems more like guys like Clark and Mathieu are getting dragged down rather than lifting up.
Maybe it's just a reflection of ownership and coaching, although Reid did have some good Ds in Philly.
You know..now that I think about it the last Chiefs team I can remember that could stuff the run had Poe on it. I might be missing one or two but I dunno......
