Also I'd like the coaches to start developing some sort of defensive scheme to at least limit these stupid scramble drill plays by these opposing mobile QB's. It's irritating as hell to see a guy nearly get sacked, get away and throw a TD.

We have a lot of young guys. I think they're just hoping they all develop. It's super risky for sure, but our pass rush helped a lot for these corners.
If they draft some guys next year, they will be young too. Half the guys they have now will be gone next year but next year is next year. I think they can get by on what they have this year as long as they aren't just decimated by injury and....one of their young guys (i.e. Tim Harris or D Acy) develops... Shan / Lynch / Saleh have certainly given this a lot of thought and I'm sure have contingency plans.
Feels great, baby!
Another great point - Wilson, Murray, Jackson, Mahomes all beat us (well Murray nearly) with that darn ability to scramble. And it seemed like the coverage kind of reached the end of their assignment and then failed to adapt once the scramble started. Good point.
