What would help our pass rush more than anything is Short actually being in that race. He's paid to be a disruptive force but he played like a JAG last year. That Pro Bowl appearance was a joke.

He had 1 off year

But not going to fault him for it.

 

Was his only "Bad" season since being here

 

And dont use the, he got payed so his effort dropped excuse.  He was one of the top Interior DL in the league the season after he signed the big deal

Sorry man, he's had two back to back dud seasons. One more and he's a cap casualty. He has 5 sacks in the last two seasons combined while being paid like an elite pass rushing three technique. Time for him to start playing like it or time for us to free up a bunch of cap space and find someone else.

Back to back

You do realize

2 season ago he was among the top interior DL in the whole league.  Including More Sacks And TFL than the Fletcher Cox's

 

People automatically think he had a bad year 2 seasons ago because his year last season and the play around him.  Without going back and looking at sacks and film

I accidently looked at his stats backwards looking at his first two seasons instead of his last two. That's what happens when you're running off of 3 hours of sleep. 

Two years ago he had 7.5 sacks. That's solid. Not game changing, but solid. We paid him based off of his 11 sack season during his contract year. Right now, that 11 sack season is looking like an anomaly. It's looking like we paid a good player like an elite player. I just hope he gets back to being "good" this year.

Not really

Again, it Very rare to see interior DL put up 11+ sacks on a consistent basis.

KK is getting paid Less than Cox but atill put better numbers.  And the other top tier (minus Donald) Interior guys that are getting paid that "elite" $$$.  He is on par if not producing better than some of them.

It's not just about sacks either. The guy was getting completely washed put of the play routinely by single blockers. He was a JAG all the way around.

Washed out? 

As in he still was getting into the backfield and more TFL than the Cox's who are getting paid more than him?

A lot of these other guys dont have a Luke either.  That is a heat seeking missle shooting through and gobbling up those TFL's which KK taking on those blockers and letting Luke get through untouched.  Doesnt get the credit that is due

Hard to make too much of last year when the whole DLine regressed.  Washington focusing on the line this year should give us a better performance and more pressure. Short had an off year in 2018 but who didn't.

    • Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves.
    • why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.   
    • McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
