Four down, eight to go as we are already a third of the way through the season. Crazy. Same format as we break down the defensive performance at each of the three levels organized by alignment, assignment, and technique. The players listed in each group are in order of how noticeable they were to me, but potentially not every player who saw action. Let us know how you feel about the defensive performance with our poll and in the comments below.
Defensive Line: C (Davis, Joseph-Day, Turner, Wilkins, Bateky, Turay, Lumor, Previlon)
Alignment: The defensive line stayed in mostly 40 fronts, with more 50 looks that included a linebacker than in previous weeks.
