I am amazed by his play this season, especially at how much he has been disrupting the backfield.

So that leads me to ask this question:

Do you think Charles Woodson can lead this team in sacks this year? He got around the starting left tackle of the Cardinals and made the sack / forced fumble.

I think he can definitely be in 2nd or 3rd in sacks.

God i hope he doesn't. That would be amazing but if that's the case it means our linebackers aren't doing their job.

---

Its possible, but i hope it doesnt happen, id rather see the front 7 get the pressure and let the secondary get the forced INTs.

His play was Glorious vs the cards ... I really want to see how thompson and matthews do. ATM the only rushing LB I'm impressed with is bishop.

Chillar is great in coverage and not bad at the run.

Pop isnt doing too bad but his poor performing last season still has me hesitating before giving him too much praise.

Havnt even seen barnett yet

Hawk ... hmmm I'm not really a fan of him; he's a bit below average IMO

Kampman I hope will have a good year - he's not doing too bad as LOLB

hmmm you asked about woodson and I talked about our LBers lol - I'm hung over.

But ya I loved woodsons play vs the cards... all that stripping the ball. What was it 3 times in the 1st 1/2? That one where errr was it williams grabbed it but the judge said he didnt have possession looked to be still valid.

Woodson is a marvel, he seems to get better with age. Probably my favourite play of last season was Woodson's impression of a human missile against the Texans. He dived between two bodies and dragged down the ball carrier.

The question is when will his age eventually make him unsuitable for cornerback? I just hope that when it happens he can move inside and become a dominant safety until he's 40.

He's a great pass rusher for a corner. Just look at his stats in last years vanilla defense. He had 3 sacks that year. That number by itsself isn't too impressive, but with our horrible pressure last year, it was tied for 2nd, behind only Kampman and tied with AJ Hawk (If I'm correct).

I don't think that he'll be the sack leader. The OLBs should get too much pressure for that. I do think that he'll get some opportunities to get to the QB in Capers' defense and that he'll take full advantage of that.

It looks like Woodson might be a designated blitzer under Capers. The problem is though opposing teams will start looking for the corner blitz from him if it's always Woodson who's coming. The Packers will have to try and send Harris/Williams on occasion to mix it up.

Woodson has been getting some pretty clear runs at the QB from the corner, but I would not expect him to be blitzed more than 4 or 5 times a game. I really don't think they would have done it as much against the Cards if Boldin and Breaston were playing.

I would expect Woody to get 4 or 5 sacks during the year. But the more they do it, the more offenses will be watching for it. The key is to get them dialed up at the right time.

But I can live with 4 sacks on top of his INT total.

I also like that they seem to be moving Woodson around. So he is able to come from both sides when he does. Hasn't always been Al on the right and Woody on the left.

In case anyone wants to check out the 'human missile' play against the Texans, it's downloadable in the highlights section of this website.

(He literally flies through and slams the guy down with one hand.)

I came upon a funny stat just now. So far in these first 3 preseason games the packers have 11 sacks. The packers had 27 total last season. That is almost half the sacks in just 3 preseason games.
