Why is he rushing against Leonard Davis when the RT is a converted DE? Shouldn't we be exploiting that matchup?

Ware needs something besides an outside rush. Leonard Davis HATES to move his feet, Ware's making it easy on him and Ellis is doing fine on the other side.

Ellis is dominating the matchup in the nickel so I don't think we have to worry too much.

Ware cannot afford to go straight at Davis who outweighs him by 130 lbs - that is not going to work. He needs to sell the outside move and then counter inside. In a couple of years, he'll make Davis look really bad but Davis has been winning the matchup so far.

Just give Davis a little move, he's lazy. He gave up the hit on McCown that caused the INT and then just watched Henry run by him for the TD. Embarisment to UT.
