There's a good chance, that, Baalke was right in his evaluation on Walker Vs. Hutchinson. Hutchinson started off dominate as a pass rusher last year during his rookie campaign, he's since quieted down this year and he's on the verge with six games left of Walker damn near catching him, if not, surpassing him in crucial categories and important areas of metrics.

So, there's that to look forward to. I think it's paramount though that we retain Allen. I think it's important that they also add a dominating presence in between the two of these guys that plays the run and pass effectively. As much as we need interior help on the offensive line. The defensive interior needs it.

Looking forward to seeing what Walker does now with six games left. I still feel like he's overdue for a monster game and these next few games actually give him a chance to pad his sack count. Browning should be manageable from the pocket, and I think, in my opinion, he'll probably match up well with Jackson when we see them on Sunday Night Football.

It's the Carolina and Tampa Bay games for me though. Those are big time games to feast on QB's that have either bad protection in front of them or bad habits of hanging around too long in the pocket between Young and Mayfield.

Carolina, TB, Cincy and Tenn all have crap Olines (outside of Wirfs) where the pass rush should get home often.
