How will Zimmer create a pass rush with Micah and Tank gone?

[Coogiguy03]

We don't have the players for it, sadly. We're not built for the run or the pass!

lol

Could easily see that!!!

Without Tank, our best run defender and Micah who can chase Fields, the run defense is the biggest concern. Tomlin is not an "air it out" coach, if he can win this game on the ground, then that's what he will do and he will make this a physical game. The Cowboys will have to commit more resources to stop the run which will allow some big passing opportunities. The pass rush is negligible unless we force them into passing situations, otherwise they can pick and choose when to pass.

I can just see it now, blitz and leaving our secondary vulnerable for them to connect on a big pass play

True, however, the alternative is to not blitz which gives the quarterback's receivers enough time to separate and connect on a big pass play.

At least the Cowboys won't have to worry about defending the run.

Time to shine mazi,golston and kneeland!

We're going to play 30 yards off the receivers and dare them to beat us deep!!!

In all seriousness he's probably going to have to be more creative with blitzing lbs, safeties, and corners sometimes.

TP the home of the opposing QB the night before the game with Jerry’s personal Blue Star TP. It won’t actually pressure the QB - but it’ll let them know that they are mad at him.

Especially our top guy #7 on 3rd and short

Get a lead

Typically that helps any defense more than anything.

I honestly don’t think he will. At least not a good pass rush.
