The “ glaring issue(s)” is their team defensive play and decision making.

When 3 of our top 6 D are 21 and under its not a big surprise we have some defensive miscues..
It's when longstanding vets like Brodie make them that is the real kick in the nuts.
Brodie and Stone have been the guys, since last season, that I'm not overly committed to in the long-term.
Having said that I don't think Stone has been bad from what I can see, even if he may not be as good as Brodie.
I don't think we are in a position to offload both of them anytime soon.. We could probably survive if we moved one but not both.
