Burns isn't Bosa and shouldn't be asking for that kind of money.  Here, this is a quick table comparing the two.  The line labeled Bosa (ex) is extrapolating the numbers Bosa should have when he catches up in snaps to Burns.  Burns has most of a season on Bosa due to Bosa's injury in 2020 costing him nearly the entire year.

Their tackle numbers look really similar, but in terms of Pressure, TFL's, Sacks . . . . Bosa is just a much, much better player.  It's what people on the Huddle here keep trying to say. 

Yes, Burns plays and does things, but Bosa impacts games.  All of the impact stats are HEAVILY in his favor.  Burns doesn't make the plays that alter the games.

Burns is REALLY GOOD.  I'm not arguing that.  I'm simply pointing out that he isn't in the same stratosphere as Bosa, and shouldn't be looking for that kind of money. 

It seems that the smartest thing we could have done last spring is included Burns in the deal with Chicago.  We'd have still had a good WR in DJ, we wouldn't have his dead cap and we wouldn't have the headache of Burns right now.

Cause he DESERVED an extension! Bosa won't play until he got his extension and they made him the highest paid defensive player in the NFL. Fitter would NOT even offer him a reasonable but fair extension which is Burns deserves.

Problem is Burns didn't want a reasonable extension. He wants Bosa money and this season has proven he isn’t worth it.

If Burns was pared up with a Bosa like talent he would be dominant. He just shouldn’t be the primary player you build your line around.

Unlike Bosa WHO IS the guy you build your line around.  Thanks for making my point.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
