Where?
I'm tired of the tons of posts that say that our defense has no pass rush. Watch the games and you'll see that is complete crap.
Pass rush does NOT equal sacks!
Pass rush = sacks and bad QB decisions.
Ok. So 3 sacks in 2 games seems terrible, but 5 INTs in 2 games seems good to me. The reason the sacks aren't there is simply because Newman is not playing. Without him in the lineup, the Cowboys are playing their corners about 8 yards off the opposing receiver. This is allowing the QB (who almost always seems to have someone in his face) to throw the ball to a receiver. That's the reason there are no sacks.
Everyone needs to calm down to see how the secondary lines up with Newman. If they are still playing back and this keeps happening, then the scheme needs to be questioned, because honestly, the pressure is there.
