OL could double team them, but DL couldn't go down and make a pile because there were no LBS to make plays. So DL made tackles 5-7 yards down the field after being driven back.
Everyone on here complained about the DL talent/performance, and look what Hill and the position coaches have done with basically the exact same players in just 2 years. The problem was never really DL talent, although more talent will help, obviously.
