I watch them all. In the contract year, much like the very beginning of this season, other players were generating push and pressure too. Lawson was a rookie sensation, Chris Smith played well, the LBs weren't Hardy Nickerson, a year older Vinnie Rey, and Jordan Evans behind them for a bulk of the season....and Burfict was playing better. Glasgow was highly underrated this season, and Lawson was getting pressure (not sacks), which pushed QBs to Geno or Dunlap. Now, to me anyways, it seems offenses are just scheming those two out of the game. Hubbard had some nice plays early on, but you gotta wonder if the added snaps due to so many injuries aren't taking a toll on the rook this deep into the season. Right now, there are no complementary pieces to them.
