It's too early to call but if your front 4 can't generate enough pass rush you have to blitz. Seems that's where Del Rio has gotten into trouble.

I recall with Jacksonville early on he had a fantastic d-line with Marcus Stroud and John Henderson.

We'll see what he's able to do with the pieces we have and the pieces incoming, but I'm more optimistic about him than I ever was about Manusky, or Barry, or Haslett.

Correct and with Young, Sweat, Allen, Payne, and Ionnadis I feel that we can have a rotation of 4 who can get pressure without blitzing now that we don't have a complete idiot as a DC
