Message: [QUOTE="OrangeMuskyFish, post: 46174, member: 261"] I think the good defense shows up. For all the criticism about how rough the defense has looked, they haven't been at full strength since Wake. Chandler is going to change A LOT, IMO. Even if he doesn't walk away with more than a sack, he is going to be amped and the result is going to be a lot of secondary impacts. The DBs, who I think have been making strides (some of those mental errors vs Tulane came despite some great coverage), won't have to cover as long. Brandon Sharpe playing less means fewer big penalties. More attention on the stud DE means more of a chance for our young LBs to catch the OL napping on blitzes... especially the way Davis has really stepped up. And Crume showed some badass flashes last week... REALLY want to see him crush the pocket a couple times if Geno is forced to step up to avoid the rush. [/QUOTE]
