Over the first two games I've noticed a trend in our defense and I've seen a few other posters mention it. We seem very susceptible to stretch/toss plays to the outside and even to WR screen plays. To me it seems like a combination of our CBs not getting off their blocks and not having the speed at LB to get to the edge quickly. It could also be due to our DE screaming upfield every play and being out of position to get back outside.

Is this a weakness we just have to deal with or is there something scheme-wise that could be done?
