Why can't we get penetration?

I'm actually suprised GW hasn't been bringing more heat despite the fact our secondary is banged up. GW is a deciple of Buddy Ryan, and Buddy always felt that you may make some plays against his blitzes but the odds were in his favor that he'd make more plays against the offense than vice versa. I say throw some of that caution to the wind, bring the heat and go after them, we have nothing to loose. I'd rather force Manning to make quick decisions than just stand back there all day and pick us apart.

I think Springs was/is a lot more critical to the blitz packages then anyone had been willing to accept
