10 takeaways from Austin & Lombardi

Defensive coordinator Teryl Austin and offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi spoke to the media Thursday as they do every week.

Here are 10 takeaways from those media sessions:

1. If there’s one person not surprised that third-year defensive end Ziggy Ansah is currently second in the NFL with four sacks through four games, it’s Austin. “We thought this might be the year that he would really break out and so far, it’s been that way.”

2. Lombardi’s two biggest concerns right now on offense are getting the run game going and getting bigger chunk plays in the passing game.
