I would do these three things to turn around this defense:1. Play a lot of cover 3, but have Tandy out there as the FS with Barron near the line of scrimmage.2. When blitzing use the double A gap blitz exclusively.  3. Avoid playing m2m because without Jenkins or Revis this team can't do it.  Verner can do it to an extent but not without a pass rush.Obviously the team tried everything in the last game (tampa 2 zone, cover 2 zone, m2m, m2m with shell over the top, cover 3, etc) defensively but they need to improve at something and stick with it.  The cover 3 is probably what most NFL defenses use now as a "base defense".  It was also a staple for Monte's defense in Tampa when the talent on defense wasn't as good.
