Cardinals O line might be worse than the Steelers. Pressure on Kolb needs to happen and should. Ziggy and Keisel need to collapse the pocket.

The big thing about Fitz is, you can absolutely BLANKET him and he can still catch the ball if it's close. If the pressure is there, the ball won't be close.

I wonder if Woodley pressures Kolb, makes some sacks and big plays if they will just be "Gildon-like" sacks (Whatever the fuck that means)
