Cornelius Griffin: Do You Feel He's Not A Force Anymore?

[Sheriff Gonna Getcha]

I dunno. Griff is our best all-around d-lineman. He can play the pass or the run. Moreover, he's getting pressure up the middle that is preventing QBs from stepping up to avoid Andre Carter's outside pressure. I have to think that Griffin's play is part of the reason why Carter is having success. Moreover, we've been stopping the run and getting decent (but not excellent) pressure with our front four and Griff is still the biggest part of that unit IMO.

On an unrelated note, is it just me or does Andre Carter look like he's added even more muscle? He just looks bigger this year.

Carter? I think he's more cut up this year. If that's possible.

Hey, I think that Griffin has put very little, to no pressure and has not collapsed the middle. I think that is the part of his game that has gotten weak. He is no longer the pass rusher he used to be. I think Carter would have a couple more sacks, if he was collapsing the pocket the way he used to.
