Defense carries day

With defensive coordinator Paul Guenther getting the wraps taken off the last two days of practice, it has not been exactly been flowing with offense. The exotic pressures have showcased the rush (Pro Bowl defensive tackle Geno Atkins has been Genoish and WILL linebacker Vontaze Burfict has found some seams) and the secondary has excelled in the back of it all despite safeties Clayton Fejedelem (muscle tightness) and Cedric Thornton (hamstring) going down Tuesday. In the last two days Burfict, cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick, and cornerback Darqueze Dennard have had interceptions in team.
