Orakpo will be fine, the Skins just need to get a lead so he pin his ears back and get after the Qb.

He was in many "pin his ears back" situations on 3rd down. I don't want to be too critical of one of our best players, but it really seems his game hasn't progressed this year. He's got to learn some moves, some technique w/his hands to get free. Last year he was at least held like mad, I don't really see that much this year at all. He's not making any team afraid of him, no double or many chips on him even.
On one hand, our OLB combo seems set for years, on the other, they are not dominant by any means & don't get around the edge quick enough to make QBs hurry. Most of our sacks yesterday & this year were coverage sacks, we should've had more hurries yesterday.
