One thing I've noticed this year is that every time we get sacked, it's for huge yards. I understand that sacks will happen, but I don't see why they're 7 yard sacks instead of 3 or 4 variety.

Why is Trevor dropping so deep? Is that because the interior line is weak and he needs to drop back to avoid a push up the middle by the opponents DTs? I would've thought Vitable in the middle of the line would be the strength, but I get that our guard play could be the issue.

Are the large losses on sacks due to TS not being able to step up in the pocket due to the injury?

Also, if the QB is that deep, isn't easier for the DE running forward to get around the OT running backward?
