Let’s list the players who are still trying.

I don't think Allen has given up, he's just *bad*

Luke may be trying, but he doesn't look particularly good.  Seeing more of Shaq than Luke the last few weeks.  Teams definitely scheming to take Luke out of the game entirely.

Luke doesn't look good because he has to shed 1, if not 2 blockers, most run plays because the gap control by our Dline is miserable outside of McCoy. We took a gamble with the 3-4 switch that Poe would be very good and McCoy and KK would stay healthy. Even with those 3 out there, our run D was average at best. Now, I'm pretty sure a 12 year old kid in a wheelchair could get 5 yards a carry against us.

yeah, he's just not leading the league as a different poster said.

imo, he's been great in pass defense as per usual but his rush defense... he just looks out of place... maybe that is just the entire D though.  hard to judge that.

I think it’s a whole D thing for sure. He’s also had a few opportunities at INT and come up short. I think we are all used to him bringing in a few and even converting one or so into pick 6’s each year. So it appears as though he’s lost a step but I would hope it’s just a product of a horrible defense as a whole.

It’s the byproduct of a porous 3-4, not Luke’s fault. 

The "new" defense was sketchy from the start of the season. On paper, the players looked to be at least equivalent to last year. It was either a bad scheme or it didn't get installed correctly.
