You know what would help our corners? A consistent edge rush.
I know I pick on the guy but there are a dozen guys on the team that aren’t producing, PS and his zero sacks was an easy target thru 8 games. I’m tired of hearing about a players upside without production. Orakpo looked like a beast but had something like 5 career sacks against the NFC east. We don’t miss him.
If we don’t have an elite QB, we need an elite pass rusher not 8-10 sack seasons. Von Miller took Denver to the Super Bowl and stole that game. The Bears and Mack are playing well.
We shouldn’t settle for the Alex Smith of Pass rushers.
Btw,
Trent Murphy: 3 sacks
Orakpo 1 sack
Edge rusher might be the most important position on the defense, we shouldn’t settle for just a guy.
Ionnidis has 7.5sacks and is an interior lineman. We should extent that guy.
