Pressure Kirk Cousins

Rashan Gary has been a one-man wrecking crew in the Packers’ front seven. He’s slowly worked his way back to full health and should be ready to go against the Vikings. That’s great news, considering the Packers have been unable to generate consistent pressure from anywhere else.

The Raiders and Broncos could sit in the pocket comfortably and pick apart the Packers’ secondary. Kirk Cousins is even better, and they can’t allow him to patiently wait for his receivers to get open.

Gary will need help from the likes of Kenny Clark, Devonte Wyatt, Preston Smith and others. They must test Cousins’ lack of mobility and make him uncomfortable in the pocket.
