So yea a great sack monster player would be nice, but right now it just doesn't look like a huge priority compared to the secondary which is currently a patchwork of backups and Kenny Moore.

I would imagine the secondary falling apart will hurt those numbers.

I think it did this past weekend. There will be no such thing as a coverage sack for this defense for awhile

Still think he's great. Not that my opinion matters. But he does it the Colts way and I would like Jim to hire no more GMs.
Trash away...
