Sure, their EPA and YPC got worse in the run game, I agree. But they also got way better in the passing game when you consider how much teams were throwing on them because they were behind. Yet, they still improved over last year.
You knew what you were getting in Wilks. Everybody knew he was a secondary specialist and that's exactly what we got. Lenior and Ambry Thomas were fucking trash prior to Wilks getting here. Lenior was a total stud by the end of the season and Thomas still isn't amazing, but he was much improved.
I'm not going to say Wilks is some defensive genius and an amazing DC. There's a reason he has been one and done with so many teams. But it's completely obvious he's the scapegoat and the lamb that Kyle is giving the players to slaughter.
