Hopefully someone has already pointed out what a made up stat this is.  Using age as the marker is silly.  Look at seasons played.

By the end of his fourth season, Peppers had 40.5 sacks.

By the end of his fourth season, Reggie White had 70 sacks.

By the end of his fourth season, JJ Watt had 57 sacks.

By the end of his fourth season, Myles Garrett had 42.5 sacks.

By the end of his fourth season, Von Miller had 49 sacks.

Shhhhh. We don't want this to get out. We need Burns' trade value to stay as high as ever. 🤫 

Really though, he's still very young and hasn't hit his prime. If we can figure the OLB thing out, then certainly these NFL execs have done it. Burns is here now playing pretty well with the hand that he's been dealt. We'll tender him and go from there.

Burns doesn't need to be among the all time greats to be a great DE. He is developing towards one, and has been one this season. He's no Peppers. But Peppers started 60 games his first four seasons and recorded 40.5 sacks. So far, Burns has started 45 and recorded 32.5; as a rookie the last half of the season saw him in on fewer than 50% of snaps. He isn't Peppers, he never will be, but fans are surprisingly hard on him for how strong a pass rusher he has been and how he has upped his game overall this year. 

Unrelated... The interesting thing about the trade rumors is that initially we were told the Panthers wanted something along with the two first rounders this coming draft to do the deal. Then a 2nd got thrown in. That we didn't take that makes me think this is a Tepper thing. Maybe I'm wrong.

Another huge 3rd and 1 goal line stand. Tackle in the backfield by Burns. He stops drives and gets sacks which can change a game. Having a playmaker like Burns on the Chiefs Defense would be an absolute game changer and he is young enough to be a cornerstone for years to come.

He’s finally going to break double digit sacks. Now if he can get them in crunch time and not just off blown assignments/garbage time. 

Idk he just had a third down sack and a 3rd and 1 in red zone tackle for loss. That is crunch time even though it’s not the 4th quarter. That’s points off the board for them. That is clutch. He’s not all pro level yet but he is making progress every year.

True but this whole game is garbage time. I need that sack against good teams before the season is over

      Disturbing

      I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

      Eric Collins Calling First NFL Game (ours)

      Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

      Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
