Brian Burns

I know I have been away for a while I want to apologize for my absence first and foremost.

This deserves its own thread - Brian Burns is on his way to becoming an absolute star in this league.  

He has been extremely disruptive over the last few weeks and even though the numbers aren’t telling the story (sacks) - the tape shows it and he is impacting every game. Constant pressure and reckless abandon relentless effort.

Time to put a nail in the coffin on those Everett Brown comparisons (no disrespect  coach).

that’s all for now

Many of us have said good things about Burns all along. He is getting stronger and developing good technique.. His run defense improvement is the biggest deal for me. That makes him a 3 down DE which is what we need.  That way we can use the same scheme and do more from it with players who are versatile and athletic.

And he is doing this in his second year at that, imagine getting this for at least 3 more years till will have to break the bank. Same for brown and YGM if they continue to develop. This d line is set for a long time and this was what i was hoping after the draft we would get. Great unit to build around.

he they both play really well, we wont be able to keep both. one will have to be let go. thats when you draft another one high.

This is why I was so pissed seeing him drop into zone so much the 1st two games. Glad Snow is seeing what he has and is willing to change things up if it's not working. Seen a lot less of Burns in zone the last two games. There is a time and a place to do those things just not as much..

    • We don't have to tear down Dak to appreciate what Bryce did yesterday. Dak had 0 running game. If the cowboys were better, he'd be a legit MVP candidate if he keeps playing this way.  They did it with Ceedee last year, but they do a better job of anybody we play consistently of getting their best receiver off Jaycee.  Bryce was good too. If we just catch the ball that was intercepted, we probably win by 7+, and Bryce goes over 200 yards passing.  Biggest shift the last few weeks has been play calling. I thought Canales abandoned the run game way to early at times last year. This year he really seems to be sticking with it.  I still think Chuba is better at making 4 yards when there's nothing there, but Rico is better at making 30 yards when there's 6 there. I like the direction. Hopefully we can get Moton, Sanders and Coker back and really be dangerous. Our play action game is pretty deadly right now.  Unrelated: My favorite quality about Bryce right now is his ability to see the defensive hold and throw the ball there. He EXPOSES the officials when they don't call it. That one on Tetaroia yesterday late in the game was a bad miss on their part. 
    • That sacks allowed number lookin juicy!  
    • This is a game the Panthers should win... just the sort of game they lose. The Panthers have a bad habit that goes back years of playing down to the competition's level only to mess around and lose the game. The Jets game should be taken very seriously! But I want to enjoy the fact that they beat the Cowboys for at least another day or so!
