    I’m not a sol fan… but yeah.

    This defense repeatedly has had issues finishing. Allowing big conversions and letting qb run has been killing them.

    Imo, lions have a issue that they don’t have “the guy”.

    Like a glover Quinn, suh, slay, even a ansah.

    A guy you could trust to be consistent and great all game.

    Right now lions lbs, dline, and secondary are all too inconsistent.

    Secondary plays well, dline can’t get to the qb.

    Dline getting pressure, secondary allows a check down to go for 10 yards.

    Secondary and dline do their job. Slot and lbs are out position and allow a completion.

    It’s why I was so desperately hoping lions could trade for a stud player but none were available. Lions just need that cornerstones.

    Hutch flashes it but simply isn’t there yet. Same with Alim at times.
