    Totally agree. They had 2 big gaps there and they filled 1.

    Playing ILB on 1st and 2nd down makes a lot of sense. It lets Perry be the guy setting the edge on most run downs which is an upgrade, gets our worst defender off the field which is nice, and hopefully can squeeze some extra production out of Clay by putting him near the ball more often. Not bad but its still just icing on the cake, Clay's salary is way too high to be justified by anything but rushing the passer and doing it well. Him getting back to probowl form on 3rd down is what would get me excited. Usually early in the season he starts off hot with some multi-sack games, hopefully the law of averages kicks in for him during the playoffs.

    I hope Capers isn't watching the Cactus Bowl. Washington just stacked three defenders over the center. No other defender was on the LOS.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.
