    In the second half I thought we were pretty agressive with our packages, actually.

    Agree with magnus, Panthers actually blitzed quite a bit yesterday,,, now why we don't get anymore pressure than we do sometimes, I guess is a different question. Although I believe we did sack Brees 2-3 times, and he'd only been sacked 11 times all year prior to yesterday. Need to keep in mind we faced a pretty good quarterback yesterday.

    Oh yea, and as for Romo, its beginning to look like ANYONE's defense will look awesome playing against Romo in a December game...:drool5:

    Eagles & Steelers defenses are schemed to be aggresive as heck


    Have been for many a season regardless of players

    Maybe its Pennsyalvania
    maybe B/C both have great D -coord

    I used to wonder the same thing but then I noticed that for the most part when they do blitz it rarely pressures the QB and leaves the DB's in a crappy situation. I'm not saying it can't work but I just don't think the Panther's blitz scheme's are all that imaginative. The other team seems to pick them up without a lot of trouble to be honest. Not every DC is Dick LeBeau or Jim Johnson.

    they suck at it, that's why

    When they blitzed in the second half Brees was on fire.
