What i didn't see was anyone else on the defense take advantage of his pressure. Where was Orakpo? Oh i remember, sitting on his heels scared.

That's the thing I noticed most about the line of scrimmage, when the giants had the ball, compared to last year. I think the battle in the trenches was won by the redskins.
And with orakpo, I don't think he's scared. He is just not comfortable playing at linebacker. He shouldn't be starting there if he's not ready.
