f Robert Quinn is on this team he is a difference maker off the edge


now that dude is a real beast. Almost unblockable. I still think in time Davenport could develop into a pretty good player. Still can't get sacks and saw him get stonewalled at times and blocked so far out of some plays it was crazy. But I do like the support and optimism for him expressed in this thread

It depends on how you look at things. You can get guys like Quinn who flat out get to the QB. Typically, those guys don’t defend the run, string out plays, or shallow cover worth a shite.

Davenport is not the 20 sack per season player that the garden variety fan salivates over. He’s probably a 12-15 sack guy at his absolute best. However, he is a complete defensive end. He does it all at a high level. He has been an eye blink away from about 5 sacks this season, and as he continues to develop, the numbers will start to come.

I’ll add that we aren’t exactly lighting shite up in terms of sacks with anyone right now. That tends to happen when you play slippery, mobile QBs like Watson, Wilson, and Prescott.
