If teams are lining up their TE's, or RB's against him then that speaks high volumes of what opposing teams think about him. I don't think he possesses the speed to be an elite passrusher. DT had the speed, and his timing off the snap was unreal. Hali doesn't have those same attributes. In fact, its not even close.

The Cards blocked Jared Allen last night sometimes one on one with a tight end.
Tamba doesn't compare to Thomas as a pass rusher but he's better than "very average" by a long shot. I'm not sure why people on this board are down on Tamba. He beat Clady yesterday for two of his three sacks, and according to most people Clady is Anthony Munoz reincarnated.
If we had a true nose to push the pocket Tamba would be sitting on 10 sacks right now.
