Mark Gaughan: Sean McDermott should steal a page from Chiefs' Steve Spagnuolo
‘Spagnuolo sends four rushers from unconventional spots. He threatens pressure so that the running back stays in the backfield to block but then drops out and rushes only four, leaving the offense with one less receiver in the pass pattern.

More varied four-man pressures.’
