just put a TE on burns and run towards his side

This.

Only thing I worry about is his ability to reach out and knock the ball out.  Bryce isnt strong enough to hold on.

About $3 mil/sack so far.

I don't even know that it was himself that thought he was so great. Fitterer basically handed over the keys to the kingdom by turning down a massive trade haul. How could he not ask for top 5 money when you turned down a package that could net you a franchise QB?

I will never forgive Fitterer for not taking that trade from the Rams. He is by far one of the worst GMs I have ever seen or right there at the very top. I wouldn't trust him to be in charge of cleaning sweaty jock straps much less run an NFL team. It's sad how far he set the team back by not taking that trade

Well if he plays like he did here… since he’s expected to go off he’ll do absolutely nothing.

Revenge for what? Trading him to someone willing to overpay him?

five sacks, seven tackles for loss and seven pass deflections in nine games

 

Not eye popping,  although he's part of a very good defense.  Our oline definitely has it's work cut out.

He has never really been able to produce eye popping stats or consistently be a high impact player.

He is more of a top 10-15 pass rusher but is getting paid as a top 5 pass rusher. That was always the rub. He isn't a bad player by any means.

He'll have a coming to Jesus moment when he gets met with a pulling Robert Hunt the first play of the game. He will have a typical Burns game where he makes 2 or 3 really good plays but then disappear for majority of the game. People will talk about the 1 sack and a couple pressures but ignore the fact he'll give up 80 or more yards rushing to his side of the football.

He’ll run past the tackle and whiff on the QB twice this game.

What usually happens is that players go off against us in their revenge game and then do nothing for the rest of the season. I would expect something along those lines.

Turning it down was the right move at the time.

If he does get any stats this game, he’ll just be quiet the rest of the season.
