Let's talk about Burns.

I made a post in preseason about him not finishing plays. Once again he left us wanting.

He got a alot of pressure yesterday but only finished once. It just seems like the guy can't get a QB on the ground once his hands on him.

He absolutely should have had 2 sacks but probably 3. 

 

Now I know a lot of you love pressure and I do too but not getting a guy on the ground leads to busted TDs ,1st downs, clock stopping and at a minimum no loss of yards.

The guy has got to become Lamar Lathon or Kevin Greene soon.

 

Yes he gets pressure but I'll try to put it in a way you might understand. 

If you're broke and have a 9/10 GF and you almost get her off all the time but don't quite get her there how long do you think she'll be your GF?

Offensive lineman hold on every single play.

He has to get their hands off.

 

But that doesn't cancel the times the QB breaks his tackle.

Lamar Kevin LT all finished guys.

We have one of the top edge rushers in the game and your complaining.... 

 

Sacks can be random. Pressure is not.

Sacks are not the only thing he does.  First, he moved the QB off his mark a lot.  Second, he is the focus of the offense, so he allows others to get good matchups. Finally, one sack per game, if that is all he does, is a 17-sack season.

I will take it.

YGM is the DE we should be criticizing.  He made a play, but the 2 point conversion was all him.

I honestly believe we just got to give Wilson some credit here. I don't get the Wilson bashing. Dude looked very good all things considered. He made a few guys miss. Reddick looked pretty shocked after Zach broke one of his tackles. 

It's not just Wilson. A lot of QBs have escaped once he got hands on them since he's been here.

What is it with all of these stupid ass threads nitpicking guys like Burns, who was on fire yesterday?!? 

We won, but it was closer than it should have been, and some issues became more glaring. I would rather have a win like this going into the 2nd game, than a blowout against the Jets where the team goes into the 2nd game cocky and then gets smacked in the mouth. 
 

Stop creating threads like this. It’s not a fresh take, it’s not edgy. It’s some ‘2/10 would not bang’ level neckbeard garbage. Stop it; get help.

That's true. 

But YGM is nowhere near as talented.

      Bryce stats past the sticks

      That's a very incorrect statement right off the bat, coaches get fired for winning ugly all the time.  Every coach of a playoff team that then gets fired, got fired because they won ugly and didn't improve their players enough to win in the postseason. Guys like Andy Reid have been fired for "winning ugly" like you said, because they kept winning in spite of the improvement of their players. Also, "this is a fanbase starved for wins" is a statement I also don't agree with, I'm not "starved for wins", I'm "starved for a winning and contending franchise" which are two VERY different things. If the team and fans just want to win some games, then that's a loser mentality, sorry, but it is.  We should want to contend, not win a handful of games.  Every time this comes up I point back to the Lions the last 5 years or so.  They were losing games but improving every week while doing so a few years back.  THAT is how you improve as a franchise and move the needle towards contending, not winning games ugly.

      this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games that run counter to vast work......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues.
