Blindside edge specifically. Which is a cornerstone position for a contender.
But other than that I agree, this defense got better in a lot of ways. Might be a better defense overall too, especially if they can win more opposite Ramsey and in the slot. But they have to figure that rush out, and ensure they are getting enough pressure, or we will inevitably suffer vs pass games which means giving up points. In this league corners can only cover very briefly, you have to get that pressure on the opposing QB to close the play down.
And ironically the first offense we face has a QB who buys time scrambling and makes ridiculous throws all over the field. So pressure is a premium for us right out the gate. Hurts even worse, too, that we face Von, who will be licking his chops going up against Boom on national feed to kick off the season.
