I actually do agree with the bit about the pass rush. Notice they said "other than Jordan and Galette." And that's true, at least the last two games. Hicks has been a disappointment as a pass rusher, IMO. Started off pretty good but hasn't really done much since that Falcons game. I would like to see Hicks moved inside more often and play Walker/Foster on that end.

Playing at both NT and LDE, Hicks' job in the 3-4 is to collapse the pocket and occupy blockers. With him doing his job, it allows both Cam Jordan and Galette to get after the passer... and those two have been doing great this year.

I am aware that he plays inside and mostly 2 gap. Still, he was getting a good pass rush early in the season despite that and it has since disappeared. It's not that I feel like he's playing poorly but he has proven he can do better than what he is doing right now.
