Jeeberoni and Pressure split snaps at DE. Against the top 3 teams we've played in Alpha (#3 Macau, #4 Phuket, #6 Mekong), they have a combined 11 sacks. We dialed back the D against the lower teams to get other guys some snaps.
So, if competition matters, I don't see how the Pressure+Jeeber combo doesn't rank up there.I'm not saying anything bad about your guys at all Arles. You obviously have the pass-rushing DE model that we're all trying to emulate in Jeeberoni. No one questions that at all. I would like to point out that he isn't very well rounded though, or he wasn't very well rounded last year. I think that quite a few of his tackles were sacks. Snaza's formula (as inaccurate as it is) tried to account for more than just sacks when you're talking about a DE's worth. I'm not defending it at all, because it would have to be a lot more involved in order to be highly accurate.
Hell, I'll be really happy if we can hold your d-line to one sack like we did in the playoffs last year.
