It appears like you're wrong but you're too stubborn to admit it so you want to frame the conversation to your narrative rather than admitting you're incorrect. It's impossible for me to be wrong. I use objective numbers. Nick Bosa was one of the most double teamed player last year yet his production numbers were in line with the best players in the game, not just rookies. There is literally no argument you can make that puts Chase Young in the same category as Nick Bosa. And to me that's what I was hoping to get out of our #2 draft pick and it hurts me that we might have more of a Clowney (just a freak athlete who makes a play or two every now and again) than a Bosa. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it all now. All you are bringing up is excuses for a lack of production. My argument is his production numbers are pretty bad. There is no way around that. You can believe the excuses you come up with or you can be like me and be disappointed that the numbers are so bad regardless of the reasons. I had higher expectations from our #2 pick. I don't care about his double team rate, his pass rush win rate, or whatever weird PFF stat you can come up with that avoids the discussion about actual production. no... YOU are bringing up your OPINION about what PRODUCTION provides value. WE are trying to tell you that there IS PRODUCTION that you are choosing to ignore. Stats lie all the time. Jameis Winston broke records in Tampa Bay last year throwing for 5100 yards (319 ypg)... the team went 7-9. Tom Brady is in the same offense and he's thrown for 3300 yards through 12 games (275 ypg) and the team is 7-5 and comfortably in the playoff race. Is Tom Brady not anywhere near Jameis?

Nick Bosa's first 8 game stretch 7 Sacks 13 QB Hits 11 Hurries 6 Knockdowns 24 Pressures I am only taking one shot at this - not sure why I am but here goes - you are missing the nuances of NFL teams and seasons. That season the 49ers were loaded at most every position and were blowing people out early on their way to a 13-3 record. So other teams had to pass much more and from behind. That means he had many more chances. Here is a little nugget - the last time Ben was sacked was against Baltimore - no not last week, in week 8! What you have to do is what Jack did - rush 4 and play coverage. The goal was to keep Ben in the pocket and make him throw the short stuff assuming eventually he would make a mistake. And it worked. This is not the 2019 SF 49ers. We have been the team behind a lot and by a lot of pts. So other teams run more and generally take less chances, also lessening his chances. Chase Young is playing with the confines of the defense becasue he is a good teammate and wants to win. Hence the reason Sweat is having a great season but that is a different topic. So we have game plan and game situation that limit his opportunities but you want to do a one to one comparison. It's not a reasonable comparison and why pretty much everyone in the free world (Ok that may be an exaggeration 🙂) but most people who know anything about the NFL agree he has been beasting it out. Your expectations are not "just higher" than others, they are wildly out of proportion with reality and without taking mitigating factors into account. It doesn't matter to me becasue I am more than happy with his production. But you may want to get used to living with disappointment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 https://www.espn.com/blog/washington/post/_/id/40797/washington-football-team-on-a-roll-thanks-to-young-defensive-ends-alex-smith Budding stars Washington's line anchors the defense, and while the interior has been good, it's the young ends who provide the flash. Sweat and rookie Chase Young have combined for 10.5 sacks, but those totals don't fully reflect their impact. Against Dallas in Week 12, Sweat made a leaping interception of quarterback Andy Dalton and returned it for a touchdown. Monday, he deflected three Ben Roethlisberger passes, the last resulting in an interception by linebacker Jon Bostic. They both play the run well; Young plays with a veteran's savvy when it comes to his awareness of plays. He broke up a screen pass, among other plays, because of this Monday. "You guys see more of the pass rush, but for me I see what they do in the run game," Bostic said. "That's what makes those guys special. A lot of ends are just pass-rush guys." 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was Nick Bosa's pass rush win rate last year? And regardless of who is the better rookie, maybe Nick, I'm taking Chase Young over Nick Bosa 11/10 times. Better college production. Better traits. Much higher ceiling. No significant injury history. Nick Bosa has now had career ending surgery 2 out of the last 3 years. He's Brandon Scherff. And he was always a high floor, non-elite ceiling type prospect, IMO. Chase has HOF tools and is already super productive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chase Young is not asked to pass rush on every play, then you can't get mad when he doesn't get a sack. There are a lot of plays that his is not rushing the passer, he's got gap control, run defense, or edge contain. Add to that a fair amount of times the other team is literally gameplanning to slow him down. Additionally he does not play 100% of the snaps because we have the franchise leader in sacks playing the same position he is. Bosa did not have Ryan Kerrigan eating up obvious pass rushing situations from him. Look at Bosa's snap count vs Young... Bosa played 777 snaps his rookie season across 16 games, Young through 11 games has played 423. Bosa played 76% of San Frans snaps... Young has played in 68%. 8 % may not be a ton but there is likely a very stark contrast in the situations he's one the field... hence the analogy of the batter getting ABs. If he's not pass rushing specifically then there's a lack of opportunity for those all encompassing stats you're prioritizing. Young plays primarily on downs that can result in a run or a pass so the assignments and responsibilities aren't "go get the QB." Go back and watch the game yesterday, there were MULTIPLE situations where you could tell Young was intentionally not going up field. He engaged the blocker, then stepped back and jumped into a potential passing lane. More than once he took it away. That's by design because we knew Ben was not going to sit back there and take sacks all game. Edited December 8, 2020 by OVCChairman 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i guess for upper management it would work by stripping their roster which the Dolphins did a season ago and the Jets did some this year. But as for the actual games i don't think any team tanks. As for fans rooting for a loss that's different but I don't think its ever in play for the players during the game. My point here is some occasionally will argue about fans wanting the team to tank and whether that's right or wrong to do but i don't think tanking like that is ever in play -- its just purely about fans rooting for draft position. But for the actual players on the field, most of them ironically don't benefit from tanking since bringing highly ranked talented actually jeopardizes their jobs let alone putting up bad tape might effect their ability to get big money in FA or whatever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
