He's extremely good. He led the league in sacks and pressure win rate, resulting in a 1st team All Pro. If you watch his tape or highlights you see has a major motor, has several moves and counter moves, can rush outside or in, great at handwork and keeping Tackles out of his pads, great ...

Re: 2025 Schedule Thread

Re: 2025 Schedule Thread


1 PM games are always the best, but the fact is we've got legitimate national juice now. Being good is a gift and a curse in that respect.
