Guess who led the team in tackles today?

Chinn essentially played box safety/LB by my eye yesterday 

I'd have to go back and watch to see how Brown did, saw a couple good plays, saw at least one where he was single blocked and didn't get much penetration (that happens even to Aaron Donald)

 

I'd say for their first games EVER (no preseason, no OTAs, weird TC) they did really well

We are going to be feeling the lack of Luke this year...honestly we’ve been spoiled by good MLB play the last 20 years 

Lester Towns -> Dan Morgan  - > Chris Draft -> Jon Beason -> Luke 

 

We've been spoiled as fans for 20 years to have essentially 3 pro bowl/hof caliber players at mlb, and 1-2 serviceable players. We are going to be in a rough situation this year and fans aren’t going to be happy

We need one this draft. Idk how the current MLB crop is but we desperately need one.

I will say this. I think if Luke was on the field yesterday we easily would have won. A lot of time our D looked directionless.

I have a feeling Shaq would need to get 25 tackles a game for most huddlers to respect his game.  He led the team in tackles yesterday.

Bruv, right?

All that man has done is produce and fans hate him because Gettleman drafted him to replace Thomas Davis.

Chinn is everything the team wanted from Thompson when they drafted him, and I hope he continues to get better each and every week. Had glimpses of TD in his prime with the flying around and way he tackles. My favorite memories of TD was when we would play the aints and he would wreck Jimmy Graham a few times when he was going into routes, and then Graham would be scared to catch over the middle. Hope Chinn gets to instilling fear into other teams as well.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
