What is our best front six against the pass?
At the Packers game, I noticed that Sutton used a two-man defensive line on almost every play in the first half. Presumably this was based on the assumption that Rodgers passes a lot. The challenge is that it didn't really slow Rodgers down and the Packers running game was also productive.

Once Green Bay went up by 75 or whatever, they started running the ball a lot and Sutton switched to a three-man defensive line and completely shut down the run.

It got me wondering. While they rotated linemen, I think our four regular linebackers were always on the field - Houston, Johnson, Mauga, and Hali.

Not putting any blame on Mauga, but it seems to me that he's not a pass rusher. He's more of a run stopper. So why would you have him in there instead of, say, Allen Bailey or Jaye Howard? Those guys seems to provide an equivalent pass rush and are presumably stronger against the run.

So imagine that it's 1st and 10 against a passing team such as the Green Bay Packers. Who are the six guys you'd most like to see up front on the field?

I can see an advantage to having only two linemen and four linebackers, because perhaps you can camouflage a blitz better. But I don't think Mauga really blitzes all that much, so I think I'd rather have Poe, Bailey, and Howard on the line on a 1st and 10. Those guys stuff the run pretty well and don't hurt us on pass rushing, in my opinion.

That's my thinking, too. Is Mauga in all the time because he's the defensive signal caller, perhaps?

He's not the defensive signal caller though.

Who's Dee Ford? Someone off the practice squad?

Seriously what the **** is going on with him? Did he shit in Sutton's applesauce or something? Dude gets like 0 play. You see so little of him that you can't even tell if he just sucks ass or if he's being sheltered. I just don't get it.

Mauga sucks either way.

I'd rather have one of the safeties in there versus Mauga.

Thanks for the analysis. I was wondering why we were getting gashed in the running game early. Looked like a totally different defense up front then the one that stuffed Denvers running attack.

The two man line is the reason they have struggled against the run the last couple years. It's infuriating that as soon as they bring in the third guy they are like a brick wall on D, but yet they still keep trying that 2-4 front. It just gives teams too many free rushing yards.
