People only see the sack numbers but pressures matter too. I have to wonder if he is getting pressures because they are focusing on Burns and Brown? Maybe Fox will finally start racking up sacks as the season goes on.


This. They have to put their double teams and best blockers on Brown, Burns, reddick.

Getting to watch the game now (missed it yesterday, was out most of the weekend) and the first play of the game for the defense is Morgan Fox bull rushing Armstead backwards before thumping Jameis in the chest.

They threw a flag on the play tho. Whack. But he did make helmet-to-helmet contact.

It is amazing how good players look when the scheme is solid and guys get freed up for 1 on 1 action. Instead of double teaming 3 rushers like lastvyear they now have to.protect one on one and can't easily predict who they have to block.

At the moment, we really are a "pick your poison" defense.  8 players showing up on the sack list after 2 games.  One of the beat writers (forget which) termed it the "bring the house" defense.  It's really true.

Burns / Reddick

Brown / DaQuan

Shaq, Fox, YGM, Haynes, Nixon, Roy

And depth guys  like Luvu...

So many players an offense has to account for.  Pressure can come from any direction.

Here are the defensive stats through 2 weeks from NFL GSIS.

Played much better than game one, this game he was a real difference maker out there not matter DT or DE or Pass or Run. Iants had issues blocking him all game, can not double brown, burns, and reddick....someone has to win the one-on-ones.

Lastly god dam is Peat isnt the weakest looking strong person in the whole world, had like 100 LBs on Fox and got beat-down regularly.

      Ward 1, Hunter, maybe 2. Per McShay

      They reached for Pickett, so they are not immune to it.  I could see that as well.  I just think the Colts are flying under the radar and they have been too quiet concerning their QB situation--of course, they could think Jones is their guy (they had a good one named Jones a long time ago) but I think they are done with the Richardson experiment.   Even if I believed in Jones, I would still draft a QB--I also read one mock that said the Jets would take Sanders if he falls to 7---I disagree, but I was once wrong and it still bothers me.

      I just switched to prime video with fanduel south. Will I be able to watch the Canes playoff games still?

      I mean, you can use that "logic," but the problem is that most practice squad players, backups or average guys don't put the play on film that Wharton did when given their opportunities.  Perhaps you'll end up right, but I don't think that just because a guy has been in a rotation makes him inherently less productive because he gets more snaps. I will say that the KC fans I've seen on social media loved him, and considered him their second best DT,  regardless of his "rotational" status, and generally considered him a dawg, so I'm going to give him the benefit of doubt until he shows otherwise.
