I hit the brakes pretty hard on Kneeland for this year, but he was excellent against Cleveland. If he can continue to be a factor against the pass it’s massive for what this defense can do.
He may benefit from the attention Lawrence and Micah get. Freeing him up to get pressures, and eventually sacks. This also frees up Kendrick, as we seen, he had 2 sacks.

Gotta give props to Zimm, i had my reserves about it but i did think it would be better than Quin as an overall D...the pressure packages where great though so lets hope he can dial thoughs up all year.

I'm torn on the pressures topic!

You can run towards a player and it be a pressure, and the QB makes a DYNAMIC pass play or takes off running like it happened a few times in Sunday's game

Or, you PRESSURE the QB to where it actually affects his throwing motion, and the play being an incomplete pass or a turnover/sack if we're lucky!!

If this team starts talking about how "we lead the league in pressures" we know ...

1) This team is reading its own press clippings
2) A massive dropoff is about to occur.

We better stop the run...we still need to prove we can do that first.
