I was always a big fan of the 85 Bears defense, and the way the Pats attacked McNabb early in the Super Bowl a few years back reminded me of that, the sacks didn't come as often once we lost Wilson in our secondary. We certainly have the talent to blitz the hell out of teams, I think injuries were a major problem in that area last year. If you notice, once Bruschi & Seymour came back, and we solidified our secondary a little bit last year, that's when we blitzed more, and our defense became less predictable, and we put more pressure on the QB. Hell I think even Hobbs had a sack last year.
Or LB's are all pretty good rushers, Vrabel, Bruschi, Colvin & Seau are all pretty good QB rushers, and then you add possibly the best young D-Line in football. Pees has to be drooling at the thought of what he can do with a HEALTHY defense. Pees also has been a good head coach in college, so he has that leadership mentality.
