    Meh, is it that different than Big Z, Prestone, Kenny, and Gary? Packers have had good pass rush the past few years.

    When Z was on the field, that was a dominant front 4. Gary is better now, Preston is getting old, and Van Ness is a rook. This years front 7 have massive potential, but they need to prove it on the field. That said its deeper and more talented than I can remember.
    I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.

    This is a cool statistical nugget and all but I wish a writer wouldn't skip over the answer to the obvious follow up question:

    Who the hell was was the guy who did it 28 years ago?

    Had to have been Darius Holland, who had half a sack week 1 in 95. Hopefully LVN has a better career here.
    Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
