We know that starters in this defense don't really matter it's about snaps played. This game will put immense strain on the linebackers to honor their responsibilities and make plays due to the dual threat of the QB. The safeties can't clean up everything versus run and pass. Without decent linebacker play this team will torture us.
I am sure that Jennings and McCloud will start but if everyone is healthy we will find out very quickly who they think is most effective. I suspect that whoever earns the most snaps this game will never turn back. If it's Jennings/McCloud then that is who they feel is best and it will probably not turn. If it's Flagg and Brooks I suspect they will supplant the other guys forever as the lead backers.
