Ingram
9 for 30 rushing ain't gonna cut it.
I watched and rewatched each of his runs. Collins didn't block anyone and they guy he should have blocked was always the one to make the tackle. That being said, Ingram needs to produce this year.

Did they move him this week? I thought he played the Strong side last week. This week, he played the Jack/rush (weak side). I may be wrong, but that can explain him not looking like turkey dump in coverage.
Yes, I noticed that too.
I hate even saying this, but I really think Harper would be great at that rushing position. He blitzed from the LBer spot and did great and as bad as his coverage skills are, they are better than Will Smith.

problem is lots of times in a 3-4, you'll have OT's blocking that OLB in a 3-4... harper ain't going to hold up at all against them.

That's what I've been thinking for a while.
He doesn't tackle all the well, and he can't cover for shite.
The one thing he does well is rush the passer.
According to PFF, the area where Smith is struggling the most is pass rushing, which should be his bread-and-butter.
He's actually doing better in run defense.

as long as he is playing in the box, I'm not worried.
his tackling isn't all that bad when he plays closer to the line either. But when he's back there in coverage, he's just a different player.
the tackling overall for the D has looked better and I think that is because they've simplified things.
