Our DTs more important than DEs

Against Rodgers our outside pass rushers are not that important. DEs just need to be ready to contain and take him down if he scrambles outside. The inside pass rush of our DTs is key. They need to push the pocket into his face and make him uncomfortable. We need great games from Collins, McClain, Thornton, and Irving (who I suspect plays mostly at DT this week).

On 2nd and 3rd and long, we'll also see a fair amount of 3-2 defense with Irving at NT. And Durant spying on Rodgers. Helps that we are getting Mo back so there is another cover guy in that alignment.

C'mon Marinelli and Orphans, let's do it to GB again!

We're set with McClain, Crawford(s), Thornton, and Collins inside, but I also like Irving's push inside because DLaw and Mayowa have the speed to run down Rodgers.

I really like the orphan tag originating in the 'ol dog faced Marinelli.
