re: Alem's sack total 2009?

The better question is how many times will he miss a tackle on the RB when he runs full throttle at the QB to try to get a sack? I think he is a fantastic pass rusher, but only an average DE because he doesn't stay home when he is supposed to.

That's what the scheme asks him to do, get his arse up the field. Just as the Colts ask Dwight Freeney to do that.

Few teams the past few years have beaten us with freakin' draw plays. They beat us with the pass, and you stop that with dominant pass rushers like Alem.
