To put it in context, we gave up 58 sacks last year, which was dead last. This year, we have given up 24 in 9 games for a pace of 42. That ties us for 16th most or least, how ever you want to look at it. That is a sack less a game over last year.
Both tackles changed.
Paul Fanaika is solid, but how much better he actually is than Adam Snyder is not really by that much. Fanaika is better so improvement is improvement.
The reason I say that is because our interior line is currently as close to status quo over the last 3 years as it can be.
Levi Brown was and is HORRIBLE. Regardless of what some ratings say.
Sowell just plays harder and with more passion and that alone has improved our LT play.
Eric Winston is good, and I am hoping Bobby Massie in 2014 is even better.
For 2014:
LT - ______
LG - Jonathan Cooper
OC - Lyle Sendlein <--- can't fix it all in one year.
RG - Bradley Sowell <--- Cardinals would be crazy to take him off the field.
RT - Bobby Massie
IMO, that is upping the talent by a substantial margin already, and that is without knowing how our LT will be next season.
Not to mention the depth and money savings that the Cardinals will have.
Just my humble opinion of course.
