guess its too much for one $2,000,000 DC to handle.

What exactly is House supposed to "handle" with this situation?! Is he supposed to step in a coach the D-line? Is he supposed to find a new D-line coach at the beginning of the season? What ace D-line coach do you think would be out there to hire on such short notice just as the season starts? What would you have him do in this situation?

When Lindsey had to step away, they tried to plug the hole with another coach, but it obviously isn't working. Hence the call Jenkins. Perhaps you could argue that should have been done earlier, but other than that, I honestly don't know what House could have done. To be clear, I think he deserves criticism for the schematic problems and overall performance of the defense, but I don't think he is to blame for the situation regarding the D-line.
