That would give us a range from 32-42 sacks. Right about where we should be. Add in a few from LBs and a DB or two and that would be a VERY good season. Will it happen...... I doubt it as things are seldom that easy to define and something will happen to at least one of those guys to prevent them from being that effective.
I hope you are right, but I am not nearly as optimistic. Except for Colvin, who I assume will only be in on third down, we essentially will be using the same personnel as last year. Since Weaver will apparently be out of the game on third down unless you see him moving to tackle, I could see him getting almost no sacks at all.

Concerning Mario, if he is as improved this year over last year as Kubuak is saying, then his production may not go down at all.

Concerning Amobi, Kubiak says he is improved, but what troubles me is that last year his production went way down during the last half of the season. People say "he hit the wall", but frankly, I'm at a loss for what caused it. The thing that bothers me is how do we know he isn't going to hit that same wall all season this year? Very puzzling to me.
