That's what has me worried - we never really get consistent pressure on the QB so we need great coverage to shore up the deep threats especially. I expect Ben to take a ton of deep shots if we're w/o Springs (as it sounds). Willie Parker doesn't worry me because our run defense is strong as ever and Horton should be back next week as well.
