Exponential return on defensive investment.

The pass rush somewhat expected let's not forget the run defense that has allowed them to get after the QB surrending less than 2.7 yards per carry and 130 yards total on the ground.......

That's less than our average per game the last two seasons that's HUGE.

Just incase someone scrolled by without seeing that. That's improvement!

I don't think people truly get how impressive it is that both Burns and Reddick are averaging a sack a game lol.

For comparison, NFL Single season record for Sacks is 22.5. Michael Strahan, 2001 season.
The next one on the team had 6 Sacks. Team total sacks for that season were 46

I'm with you. The pass rush and sacks are getting all of the attention but we've been completely shutting down run games.

The front office absolutely killed the off-season with the additions of Fox, Reddick, and Jones. 

On the defensive side of the ball.  

I love the Reddick and Burns challenge.  They both have 3 each and are in competition to out do one another. Actually, I think Reddick is up a half a sack.   If you remember Burn's sack you can see him mouth.  "That's three"  I'd bet it was directed at Reddick. LOL.  Reddick got his later.  It's going to be hillarious if one or the other goes up a sack or two on the other.  It will be game on.

pretty sure they did the same in the Taints game.

Yup, the Jameis sack where he threw it backwards.

That is the 2nd one that refs have stolen from Burns that I can remember.  The other one was the second strip sack against Herbert last year.  

I dont know who was in on the sack last night that they rules an incomplete pass, but again, I don't see that happen to other teams.  I almost wanted Rhule to throw the challenge flag just to get our guys that sack lol.

Hopefully the OL will get similar attention in the near future. 

They will. It has gotten attention but apparently not everyone has noticed.  It will get a lot more now that it appears we may not need to go qb with our first pick again next draft. That is unless there's one there that Rhule wants.

    • Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3. 
    • After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...
    • My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
