And if you miss, he's gone. We already have 9 guys in the box to stop the run. You bring him up and there's nobody back there
That's where you have to use your spidey sense....standing back and letting them get 7 easy yards from a slow TE is not an option if you want to win. Just saw another game losing soft coverage.

 
Man some of these off tackle plays...,off the snap it looks like our d just gets swallowed by their line. 
It feels like one big part of that is the numbers game right now. 6-7 blockers going up against 4-5 defenders, and then when NU linebackers come in, they're having to make up for lost ground from their position at the second level. By that point, Iowa's line is 2-3 yards down field.

Truth.  Be aggressive to try and force something.  Anything to quit letting them eat up 6 miin drives...
