Truth is, Davenport is doing well rushing the passer, and consider, the 2nd year is when players take a step back (usually) before exploding in their 3rd year (see Marcus Williams).

"He’s notched 38 pressures so far, the ninth-most among edge defenders, with 27 hurries to his credit (8th) to go along with three sacks and a pass-rush productivity of 9.9, which is tied with T.J. Watt for 11th among players at his position."

Davenport is shaping up well, some players just need a good rotation and plays off.

I'm hoping we see some urgency this next game. Early on this year he was very impressive for a 2nd year guy. He has definitely cooled off and his snap production was at 70, then 50, and this game 30 percent. The talent appears to be there. Hopeful to see more out of him this week.

We have a great dline, no doubt Bout it.
