“Haason Reddick is gonna make me go even harder because there’s going to be a little competition now in the room for who’s going to get the sack the fastest. And also, he’s just going to take a lot of attention off of me … [the offensive line] is going to have to pick their poison.”

Panthers DE Brian Burns: Haason Reddick ‘gonna make me go even harder’ (usatoday.com)

"In their December meeting, the Panthers squeezed Packers MVP Aaron Rodgers down to just 143 yards and sacked him five times. In the Super Bowl, the Bucs punished the Chiefs’ alien QB Patrick Mahomes, posting three sacks, 10 quarterback hits and picking him off twice.

Building an intense pass rush like that is a cumulative effort and all the pieces matter. Reddick and Burns lined up for different squads last year, but if you put their numbers together they would have totaled 21.5 sacks and 37 QB hits. Any reasonable team would be happy to get that kind of production from their edge duo."

YGM might be the most forgotten player on this roster. DEs take time--Johnson and Rucker and Hardy-all except for Peppers were invisible in the first year or two.

 

YGM is going to be one to watch.  He could have a breakout year this year with all the pressure coming from all directions.

YGM is my guy........only thing I heard about him just he acts young even compared to young people. If he was in this past draft, Im about 98% sure he would have been a 1st given the lack of talent form DE/edge pool. If the light switch gets flipped on this year..... panthers will give any teams issues this year on both sides of the ball. He should be able to play inside some too.

Yea ..I'd agree. Hell if he didnt happen to come out the same year as Chase Young, one could argue he probably would have been the first DE off the board last year. I honestly thought he was/is better than Chaisson. That lawsuit and Penn State  forcing him to play DT at times didn't do him any favors. 

If Jones and/or Fox can atleast duplicate Kerr's success.. we will be dominant, all things considered.

Maxx. Ugh, sucks we missed on him. We had him in for one of our 20 or so private visits. Losing pick 77 in the trade and taking Grier at 100. Crosby went after Grier and before we took Miller. Unfortunately, Marty isn’t Fitterer who realized Marshall would be gone before Christensen and made his selections in the right order. I’m pretty sure Grier would have been there at Miller’s pick. Crosby and Burns with Brown and Jones in the middle? Would have been like that dream Hardy, Johnson, Star and Short DL that almost was. Probably even better.

Well, Fitterer also used a draft pick on a LS who would have been a UDFA.

    • I get it, but it's just like "dropping dimes" doesn't have a definition either but is saying the same thing. They're like what the Supreme Court said about Porn, "you know it when you see it" And I think you have to be watching with some crazy ridiculous Bryce goggles to think he was "slinging dots downfield" as the OP said.  I'm not taking anything away from Bryce for making the necessary throw in those situations and got two TDs on two 4th down plays.   But they weren't "sligning dots downfield" and they weren't "dropping dimes", they were pretty basic throws for any NFL QB, not even starting QB, just any QB.  They were 15-20 yard touch throws for the WR to run under it, with no safety over the top of them or need to let them get down in bounds.  They were in essence practice throws with no DB covering them, just in a high pressure game situation. 100% perfect throws for what was needed, which in itself is a credit to Bryce as he's struggled with that on easy throws in the past.  And hell, this literally might have been his best game of his career all things considered. But "slinging dots downfield" is just an absurd statement to say after today, sorry.
    • Idk, but I was just scrolling shorts and this video popped up calling the Tmac pass an “absolute dot” so, unless this is you, it seems like it might meet more people’s definition of “dot” than he thinks. Anybody crashing out over calling these passes “dots” really can’t be taken seriously on any Bryce Young related topic because he clearly affects their ability to think straight.
