Credit to the staff, but LB and safety are still a question mark

UW was 66% on red zone TDs on offense. That number could improve
Opponents were 60% on red zone TDs. Thats not horrible for the D

UW wasted one of the best defenses of all time in 2016RaceBannon said:This isn't your grandfather's defense. Not even your older brother's defense
In the 60's and 70's the best defenses held teams to around 200 yards a game. Or less in a mismatch. James was a defense first coach and early Husky teams had stats that a modern team would be hard pressed to match in a half
As the 80's turned into the 90's the various spread and run and shoot and one back attacks had the offense gaining the upper hand. So 300-400 yards became good defense. James had enough in 89m and went to the kill your QB 46 defense. Offense caught up to that too
But what really sealed the fate of defense was the hurry up by Chip which is now used by everyone. No huddle and go fast or slow. Spread them out and run it as the defenses got smaller and faster to stop the pass
If the D bunches the box then throw it over them.
Good defense is now holding the opponent to one point less than you score. To come up big when it matters. To play tuff in the red zone
Other than letting the ASU back up look like Bart Starr the Husky defense did that for the most part. The stats make sense even though the D was "horrible" by past standards -
Pairing that defense with Jack Browningwhatshouldicareabout said:

Yes, this is the best point. Nearly all of the 2 deeps are back and there are targeted upgrades at CB and LB along with better depth at Edge. Keep on improving.Sources said:
The poor tackling was a concern, as was the frequent presnap confusion. Both seemed to improve down the stretch, as evidenced by a 6-0 finish. Second year in this system with an upgrade at DB should helpLawDawg1 said:
Agreed except for the missed tackles and wide open WRs.... And yet with that, the stats say top 3 in conference.RaceBannon said:This isn't your grandfather's defense. Not even your older brother's defense
