with 34 total. You could say we're on pace for 68 sacks on the season but that's a bit much to expect.

The interesting thing I found from our defensive half season stats were : 

  • We have SEVEN different players with 3 sacks or more, thats fuging awesome
  • How does Eric Reid have 3 sacks?
  • Vernon Butler has 3 sacks and 3 forced fumbles..let that sink in

Because that’s one of his biggest strengths and we’ve been smart to utilize him as a blitzer. Best DB blitzer we’ve had since Captain his first go around and Mitchell in 2013. Very happy that we’ve been using him like that.

Butler has been a beast at times this year honestly.

Never oh never did I think I would type such a thing seriously.

Sometimes its less about talent, heart, desire, etc.. than it is about getting in the right system with enough chances.  Some players will thrive in any system and environment while others needs specifics.  Butler might be the latter.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center.

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.
