It's easy, and only takes a few moments.For me, I want Cunningham to be able to hold the POA against the Run in the 4-3 or set the edge if he's lined up at OLB in the 3-4 if the run is to his side. If it's away from him, I want him to recognize and slide down the line or offer backside pursuit. I want him to put pressure on the QB. He doesn't need to be some ELITE Pass Rusher.. Just get the QB on the move. By nature, that puts a majority of QBs off on their throws and allows for a greater potential for an interception. The sacks will come if the other people are doing their job.
In other words, develop into a solid overall player with complete game. I agree, the sacks WILL come. Hell, he had a bunch slip literally right thru his hands last year. But playing w/ leverage and intelligence, learning the position, understanding what it takes to "do his job", is what its all about for him right now.
Love the excuses of no OTAs, mini-camps, etc. as the main reason Cunningham hasn't performed. The OL that's blocking him also didn't get the benefit of OTAs and such.
By all accounts, the O-Line has played like trash in pass protection since the start of camp. It wasn't until the most recent practice that reports claimed that there's been improvement by the group. That further weakens their arguments, I guess.Love the excuses of no OTAs, mini-camps, etc. as the main reason Cunningham hasn't performed.

How does one have a second year slump if the first year wasn't impressive in the first place?
I'm not concerned that Reiss is concerned. I'd be concerned if BB was concerned.But we won't know if he is concerned so I won't be concerned.
I'll wait until Thursday, that's right only 4 more days:rocker:, to see what my lying eyes tell me.
I lost count after about week 5. He seemed to be in the mix on so many "shoulda been" sacks. I found myself getting frustrated for him.
yeah should have had 5 or so.
One of them was a blatant penalty by Dirty Sanchez which was not called b/c the Jets were getting their asses kicked so bad.
Not sure how the refs missed it, it's not like it was a holding play on the Oline, Cunningham was taking Sanchez down and everyone was watching it.

What play are you talking about? For some reason, I can't recall it.
disappointing, however, maybe it's a testament to the SUPERIOR PLAY of our OTs? Now if we only had some interior line help without having to sign mankins.
