Lions defensive coordinator Gunther Cunningham has seen just about everything an offense can throw at a defense. The new rage in the NFL these days is the read-option run by mobile quarterbacks like Washington's Robert Griffin III and San Francisco's Colin Kaepernick. "It's a big thing in the league now, and that's why we've got bigger corners, because they're going to have to tackle," Cunningham told Tim Twentyman of Detroitlions.com. "The ball is going outside, they're spreading you, and quarterbacks are running the ball. "I think we all understand what the issues are and how to play it. I reflect back on my college days and it wasn't that hard to remember all that stuff because it put a lot of pressure on me in those days and it does in this league too." "The problem is for those quarterbacks, one of these days one of them is not going to walk off," he said. "It's a lot of pressure on him to physically do that." Source: The Redzone
