[QUOTE="TromboneJacket, post: 859615, member: 2580"] I wouldn’t say nobody on the DL was disruptive or got pressure. I thought Ivey played pretty well, as did Brooks, and Biggers showed some flashes of potential. Domineck didn’t have a good year, but he wasn’t put in a good position to take advantage of his strengths. To have success on DL, you need a minimum of 3 decent big/strong guys on the field at any given time. We usually had 2: Ivey and Brooks (who occasionally was swapped out for Biggers). Domineck is good at what he’s supposed to do, but that’s not the same thing. You need 3 guys who can hold their ground 1-on-1 against an O-lineman (and you’d like your NT to be a guy who can consistently draw double-teams). If Ivey continues to play well and we get good play at Nose Tackle (whether from Biggers or Chimedza), the success of our D-line will depend on 2 things: our ability to develop a competent 3-Tech DT (Lockhart, Scott, Stone, Douse, or KJ Miles) and Collins/Thacker putting them in position to succeed (let Domineck use his speed and technique to get around the edge, and find someone else to handle that B-gap).
