Message: [QUOTE="SmilinBob, post: 1606767, member: 857"] I think the D will be a lot more like what SU had when Mac and P were here. One problem I see is getting the kids to be able to go from the attack to playing and recognizing their areas and since they will still be relatively young, we will see a bit of a learning curve for example following player A on route and having player B go to the open vacated spot. Knowing how far to pursue or cover will be huge and how quickly they figure this out will be what Ward and staff have to be able to teach and players to absorb. Pressure on the QB is going to be tough but I'd rather see 4 rushing and 7 back than 5 or 6 and still no pressure as others have said. I could see a couple of lb's lining up on 3rd and longs on the DE sides for a bit more of a speed rush, especially since that position is beyond thin. [/QUOTE]
