Players or coaching?

RBs should never go untouched against a 10 man box for 35 yards on 1st and 10. 

I have no earthly idea what House is trying to accomplish here. But beyond that there is virtually no gap responsibility going on. Brice, Martinez, and Burnett all start to collapse to the middle. Clark and Dial do their job. Clay sets the edge and forces this inside. This play should have been shut down at the line. House was never blocked and just ran himself out of the play on his own. I don't think he diagnosed run until the RB was off and running. Same goes for Brice. The net result is that the defense tried to put three defenders into an inside gap already being defended by two defensive players. 

IMO this defense still looks like they aren't being prepared properly to play effective, consistent defense. That many players doing what they shouldn't be doing points to a coaching issue.
