...when Byrd and Lewis return and when the rookies get a little more seasoning...

I still have to ask: How are we going to generate a pass rush?

Byrd isn't returning, Lewis is just one guy. Dumb question is dumb

If you can man up effectively with a single safety over the top. You can send extra guys.

Lewis and Byrd ON PAPER could allow an extra squiggly line directed at the QB

Like Kikaha? The guy we drafted to generate a pass rush?
Another young guy like Edebali, whose purpose is essentially pass rush?

You answered your own question.

You can afford to blitz more with great corners and solid safety play

I think Kik and Cam can make a formidable pass rush.

If you have better coverage guys, it gives the pass rushers more time to get to the QB. Duh. They will eventually get there, but they need more time

You mean like that touchdown pass where Palmer had 10 seconds to throw?

Once Keenan Lewis comes back and locks down his guy...we can start sending an extra guy. Browner is good, but he isn't a #1 corner. I haven't gone back and looked, but I bet Cam Jordan was being doubled a lot. That's what I would do if I were the Offensive Coordinator. Kikaha & Edebali can get to the QB...hopefully we can put them in a situation to succeed.

You realize one of our main pass rushers is a rookie you're talking about

The same play where we only rushed 3? If I recall correctly, they had 2 passing TDs against a 3 man rush.
