Some of these blitzes seem akin to "well shit, I can't do anything else with him so I might as well have him rush to occupy a blocker...."
Sorensen's are the same way. I don't remember the last time Hitch got through either.
We don't have good blitzers. Gay probably should be and Bolton was at Mizzou but the NFL is a different critter. Sneed is excellent at it but you can only show that card so many times and unlike some of the other guys, he CAN do multiple things well elsewhere so blitzing him is pretty painful if he doesn't get home.
Bottom line is that we need to get Sorensen and Niemann off the field and this front 4 has got to figure shit out. The effort level has really been unacceptable.
