Defensive Anwsers/Questions

The fact that the score sheet doesn\'t show him as making tackles means.....he isn\'t making tackles. Without eyeing him solely on film it would be hard to see if he is indeed making plays. Alot of times, the work of one makes a play possible for another. This may be the case. The simple fact that Haslett kinda glossed over his achievements in the game by saying he is showing the signs of strength and speed they say in his college play, generally says that they have little to be impressed with yet.
Sullivan may well be filling gaps or penetrating to the pocket yet have nothing to statistically show for it. DT should be one of the easiest positions to slide into as a rookie since the positional learning is minimal. His athleticism should allow his production to escalate once he gets over the rookie jitters. I heard he was hyperventalating before the Eagles game?
