Saints' Sheldon Rankins says second sack of season was 'long overdue'

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I'm not for labeling him a bust. Cam Jordan's production has been otherworldly. That doesn't happen often without a good DT.

Re: Saints' Sheldon Rankins says second sack of season was 'long overdue'

I'm not for labeling him a bust. Cam Jordan's production has been otherworldly. That doesn't happen often without a good DT. Run defense is better overall...doesn't happen without DTs doing their job.

The problem with DTs is that sacks/TFL/tackles stats don't tell the story about their job. I would like for him to be a 10 sack guy, but it doesn't appear that he's wired that way. He's been a fraction of a sec late on numerous sacks this year, so at least he's applying consistent pressure...that only helps the secondary, who has seen a revival this year.
