Ravens have had a ton of success this year with pressure from the DL, with Justin Madubuike having an absolute monster year and Clowney tying his career high in sacks at 9.5.

That's just a product of who we are this year. Our corners are very sticky and safety play has been good. We can blitz more knowing we are still good in cover 0. We disguise these coverages exceptionally well also, thats what spags does. I also won't be surprised if we drop 8, rush 2 and have a spy on Lamar on some 3rd and longs. Should be a good cat and mouse games with Spags. Our O-line is going to have a tough task. Clowney looks rejuvenated this year. We are going to miss Thuney, but Allegretti is a great back up, but if we have another injury it could get dicey. The Chiefs need guys to step up on offense like MVS did last week and not turn the ball over. Its going to be a battle.
