Rodgers and Dalton, along with Manning in the latter stage of that game when they chucked Kubiak's offense, were getting the ball out in 2 seconds or less consistently.
You can not hope to generate a pass rush if you don't disrupt timing.

Product of the single-high in my opinion. Can't press everyone with pretty well no over-the-top coverage on the back end. I hate the concept, but its what Sutton trots out every week.
Do agree with others that its time to start giving Wilson and Ford some serious reps to see if they can hack it. Too many holes in the defense right now. Hali has really fallen off, DJ is downright awful looking at times this year. Poe was brought back too early.
As for the offense, Alex Smith isn't worth a **** and the offensive line is so bad it just makes him pathetic. Can't block for the game's most explosive running back. Just a shit show. Defense is on the field constantly with 3 and out after 3 and out.
I mean, where the hell does this team begin to fix the issues?
