The pressure has overall looked really good this year to me. It's also a win when teams back off the vertical game and go to more 3 step drops, quick screens to the outside, and to their running backs out of the backfield. We got burned on one big quick outside screen last week but I would much rather see teams try to beat us like this then like it was last year when they were lighting the DB's up downfield and converting way to many 20+ yard plays. The only time I see that now is when Capers goes to that stupic 3 man rush. |

should never be getting beat over the top in a 3 man rush. If you play a sound zone coverage aspect a 3 man rush is a decent play for 3rd and forever. I wouldn't get carried away with it though. I'm one of those guys that likes a 4 man rush minimum. If it's a 3 man rush I'd like it to be a surprise element like a safety or linebacker coming from another area. |

The important thing is that it is better than last year. The good thing is that it should continue to get better as our young player gain experience. |

Green Bay is leading the league with 28 sacks. Wow.
Offtopic but we are currently tied for 4th in interceptions, but 7 behind the leader. Waaaaaay down the list in forced fumbles. We also have 0 defensive touchdowns, while Chicago has 7. |

Hasn't Chicago only played one team with a winning record, and lost BIG time to them (the Packers)? I think their schedule is about to get much more difficult. Hopefully they won't keep up their dominant defense performance. They are elite this season for sure, but I certainly expect (hope) them to come back down to earth over the remainder of the season. |
