...on a top-ranked pass defense?

One of them is going to have to cover D-Bowe's opposite flanker from college on Sunday, I assume, with Sapp being doubtful for the game.

Better hope the ends can bring it.

I don't think there's much of a drop off. Sapp is a fringe player at best.

Brackenridge did ok, but it was Rexy and Da Bears

The Eggo Oline is struggling, Rivers is playing like Damon Huard, and they'll have to get their running game and pass blocking working vs our Improved Dline to take advantage.

Brackenridge will probably be the guy, and in the nickle, should be as good as Sapp, whose real strength is his blitzing anyway. TBrack is bigger and probably as fast as Sapp...

Sandy Eggo doesn't exactly have a dominating passing game or Elite WRs.

According to one of the coaches on Hard Knocks, Nickel takes the most intelligence to play. Supposedly Sapp is pretty smart, hopefully his backup is.

They might switch Surtain to the nickle in those packages......

Alphonso will PWN.....wait and see...I love that guy...they will have trouble containing him up the gut and JA and TH will contain and sack...I am pretty confident out front 4 will dominate their o-line, especially if we keep it close into the second half.

I thoutht Brackenridge was our nickle anyways?

Doesn't everybody remember that the coaches earlier in the offseason had switched Sapp to exclusively playing on the outside?
