Hence Aaron Donald and Geno disrupting Offenses all these years. You collapse the pocket from the inside...
The QB has only one choice, run.
NFL is all about finding uneven matchups and taking advantage of those matchups. We are CLEARLY at a disadvantage on the edges, and good coaches recognize and exploit that.
Ideally, yes, you collapse the pocket from the inside, but with a QB who refuses to climb the pocket and back up up up up LT and RT, why not just destroy them on the edges over and over?
Gameplanning a pass rush against the Bengals seems like a no-brainer.
