I hope GW has the defense ready to defend the option play against Carolina!

I know Gregg loves to blitz all the time, I'd just dial it down a little for this game if I were him, let roman Harper get a couple of shots at taking Newton down. But if we stay with 7-8 in coverage most plays and rush 3-4 players at a time, we can stop the run like we have been doing and still leave a spy to limit newtons running room

The past couple of weeks, G.W. has not blitzed as much. The front 4 seems to be getting better at pressure on their own.

The run defense has been pretty good since the first Atlanta game

We've been blitzing just as much

The difference is that we've had a couple extra sacks so ppl quit complaining

The pressure has always been there...but one of the most overrated stats wasn't there
