Yeah, he's a bust at this point. He hasn't been getting double teamed and hasn't gotten pressure up the middle. Again, when you take a DT that high, you expect near Aaron Donald levels of play.

So, HURNEY fuging MAGIC 

What?. I saw him double teamed a few times yesterday.. He is putting up nearly the same numbers as Star did his 1st 2 season.. Nobody was calling him a bust.. And Brown is a different type of DT from Donald..

They had him as giving up the most pressures on the line.

Also if remember correctly he had at least one penalty and pretty sure penalties are graded pretty harshly since they can be drive killers.

NVM, I see your post about the penalties.  

Our OL gave up 7 pressures according to this, just yielding 1 sack.  That's not bad, not bad at all given our OL history.

I agree.

We completed 1/8 3rd and 4th downs throwing the ball.  Only one of those attempts was a sack.  The rest were incompletes or completions that didn't get past the sticks.

Overall, we were 3/12 on 3rd and 4th down.  They were 8/15.  That was the ball game right there.  Everyone wants to talk about ToP, that's a byproduct of not getting them off of the field on 3rd down and not keeping our drives going on 3rd down.

Our offense did a bad job of converting, our defense did a bad job of preventing.  You can blame both.

Yep, they are not mutually exclusive.  Both can be bad at the same time.  Our offense couldn't move the chains consistently and our defense couldn't get off the field particularly on 3rd and 4th downs as you mentioned.

yep.

Football is a game of possessions, that is why turnovers have such a high correlation to winning.  Failing on 3rd and 4th down are like mini turnovers with less field position change.  

Change the conversion numbers by two (we go 5/12 and they go 6/15) and there is a good chance we win considering we had the turnover.

Seems right.  I lost a lot of faith in Jackson yesterday.  We can’t afford another bad deal - he’s had 8-10 good games in 4 years with the team.  Time to cut our losses.

Plus we gotta pay Reddick and build up the O-line. Not to mention Horn coming back plus Bouye, Henderson, Taylor and hopefully Gilmore.

Derrick Brown is looking like a bust. He sure isn’t helping against the run.

He's had a couple bad games but he's been pretty solid. He's still developing. Physically and within this scheme. PFF isn't the gold standard but they've has graded him poorly the last couple weeks... this is the same dude that made their All-Rookie team last year, along with the PFWA All-Rookie team. The skill is there he's just got to refine a few things. I get it though...microwave expectations. You wont find consistent  instant dominance unless your just an all-world athlete...i.e Aaron Donald. 

Most players should b allowed 3 years to  develop before passing serious judgement. Doesnt mean he shouldn't be held accountable, he still has a job to do. I'd give him the benefit of the doubt though. 

Mario Addison, Charles Johnson, KK Short, etc..all examples. Give him time.

Yeah saying Brown isn’t tying up 2 blockers is ridiculous.  He does this much of the time.  We would be totally terrible without this dude in there

If there is one dude on this team I am least worried about it is Brown

Bit of an overreaction.  He had a bad game, but that doesn't make him a bust

He was trending in the wrong direction well before this game.  Despite being small on the outside, a lot of the damage being done in the run game is straight up the middle on Brown and Jones.  Even on zones and powers, they arent affecting the run game at all.  He doesn't exist in the pass game and he has been getting manhandled most of the year in the run game.  I dont think its an overreaction.  He looks bad.

Like everyone else on defense yesterday he was tossed aside with relative ease, but Brown's not been bad at all this year.

Many fans don't know the difference between defensive end and defensive tackle, which is fine. 

They don’t understand football period.  Random threads on a guy that had a mediocre day calling them busts is a weekly thing here.  Some people just can’t accept anything but elite level on every play from every player.  The other teams guys are under the same type of scrutiny.  Hard league is hard and when you win a game its Super Bowl for a week.  Lose and they entire team needs to go.  Dumb

    • we are not talking about the 5th we are talking about bryce being one of if not the worst starter in the nfl for the past 3 years.  Dont move the goalposts my man
    • The issue is the position Bryce plays. Finding a good/great quarterback isn't easy. Plus, it sometimes takes years for these guys to actually become good/great. What you have to look for is progress instead of regression. Bryce has shown that. Can he put it all together? We don't know yet. But that's why you place a smaller bet with the 5th year option, and wait to see. You could be wrong and lose your 30 mil bet, but you didn't hitch your wagon long-term and lose much more.
    • Absolutely not. That’s too much for replacement level player. Bryce may be that. Or he may turn into something more. If you can’t see the flashes, you’re willfully blind. There’s more bad than good right now, but there’s less bad than there was earlier in his career. He’s only 24 and he’s showing signs of improvement. He may never become consistent enough to justify a long term contract, but he’s shown enough to roll the dice on what effectively will turn into a 2 year, $30MM contract for the next two years to see if he can earn something longer.    Sure, in his one season starting, Howell managed to throw for 3,946 yards and toss 21 TDs, but it took throwing the ball an astounding 612 times. He also threw 21 INTs (for a particularly egregious 3.4 INT%). For all the talk of him being a deep ball thrower, he still only averaged 6.4 YPA, with an average air yards of 5.6 yards per attempt. And for all the excuses of Washington’s line giving him no protection (65 sacks taken that year), he was only pressured on 22.7% of his dropbacks, which is a few percentage points lower than what Bryce has had to deal with each year (24.2, 26.7, and 24.0%).    These are all numbers that are at best roughly equivalent to Bryce’s production the past two years. It’s wild to me people can claim so confidently that he’s a better QB.
