eventually a big boost to run defense and allows pressure to come from both edges. However, conditioning wise I wonder how much he can go in 1st game back.

that's why i don't expect he'll get the bulk of the reps right off on just first game back. .. but even if it's 40-50% , that's a plus for us

According to Jerry from the Fan, DLaw will play. But Gallimore and Gregory probably won't until the WFT game.

Can't expect too much from him this week, but getting in the mix and on the road to "game shape" will be huge boost to the unit.

Remember his first game back from the foot injury in 2014? The playoff game against the Detroit.. 2 sacks, a FF and 2 fumble recoveries.. Now I know he was young back then but with experience he should be even better.. That's where I'm setting the bar though..

Til he stumps a toe and is out for the rest of the year while still collecting his ungodly amount of money

I didn't remember and now I am buying a ticket on the giddy train.

Yeah pass rusher is one of the few positions where you can make a huge impact while playing 20-25 snaps. Fresh legs coming off the edge is the fear of every tackle in the league. Lawrence on one side and Parsons on the other in passing situations means Taysom Hill running for his life.. and as good of an athlete as he is.. he aint runnin away from either of those guys.. Especially not Parsons.. and if he tries he will run right into Lawrence.. Speed up the clock in his head early in the game and he will crumble.. He's not a polished NFL QB.. He's a gadget guy now being asked to shoulder the load.. I don't think he can do it if we put heat on him.

If this minimizes Micah's rush opportunities in even the slightest I will be uber pissed.
