Pelini? Are you kidding?

The most effective blitz was with Chief when he had NFL players on the roster, specifically wen Ron Brooks and TM7 came off the corner.

THAT is one of the big things we lacked in 2013, as Chief thought Micah Eugene had the speed to scare QB's, but he and the others chosen to blitz were no where close to being fast enough.

SPEED and player selection. That is the difference.

D. Thomas was very effective late in the year blitzing off the edge. I look for him to make some plays next year out of that rover/nickel back position.

TM7 wasn't the fastest guy we had but he seemed to be able to get to the QB QUICK! That guy had was a terror to opposing QBs. You know Geno Smith hated playing against him!
