That's not what I said at all. Nice try, though.
Relax, Vrabes.
I think he was referring to Joey.

Fixed it for ya.
Cross your fingers that Myron Pryor can finally contribute as an interior presence.
The only other possibility might be a rise in Deaderick's play, and more use in the rotational DT format.
In my opinion, those are the only 2 hopes that we have, and they aren't too high of hopes.
EDIT: Unless they put a call into G.Warren, and he can somehow offer some fresh reps and pressure down the stretch of the season + into the playoffs?
I thought Cunningham did really well as interior rusher on passing downs; I think we would benefit greatly from the additional interior pressure. The problem then is who's going to play opposite Jones, as Nink doesn't seem to get consistent pressure: he has his flashes where he brings nice pressure, but he's too inconsistent. Might be caused by his responsibilities too.
A solid pass rushing presence next to Wilfork on third down would be a welcome sight too.
I think we're getting more push upfield than last year, but they're having trouble finishing. Jones seems to be the only one who finish on a relatively consistent basis.
Ideally you'd want Wilfork off the field on third down for someone who is more of a pass rushing presence, yes. But putting someone like a healthy Myron Pryor next to him isn't bad, either. Wilfork demands double teams and could really open up some holes for Pryor... should he ever see the field again.
When was the last time Pryor played? When he destroyed Brett Favre?
