He looks good, criminal we aren’t playing him more. He seemed to have rushed the throw which was the Jaycee INT and the Jags obviously made a point to double or chip him every single play when he came in. They clearly think he can do something if they’re committing an extra man to him. 
 

edit: wasn’t the INT he got pressure but still I’ll take 1 pressure created out of 6 snaps for a rookie playing first game getting doubled

Booty cheeks. Doesn't look like he has any pass rush plan or any technical moves to defeat blocks. He pretty much just tries to bull rush the blocker then immediately quits if that doesn't work.

lol I appreciate how you and I are always somehow in complete disagreement.

Yup. Looks like another project that needs to learn a lot to be effective. Those have flourished here in the Tepper error...

At least he looks quick but too small to rely on a bullrush in the NFL

Rookie 2nd rounder in his first career game (and a few weeks post punctured lung) gets 6 snaps, is doubled on 5 of them, created a pressure to force a QB scramble on the only one he was singled, and still put a little pressure on one of the doubles which ended up being an INT...........

And people look at that as a bad first impression?

Even if you wanted to see a better move to beat or get off the double team, just the fact that he's making teams account for him with 2 players on a given snap, is a win for the defense.  It's up to the rest of the defense to make the other team pay for doing so, you can't fault him for that.

Seriously, it's like some people are just going to be upset with everything if we're not a SB contender every season and play like it every snap of every game.  I've been screaming it all offseason, we're not a player or two away from being a contender, we're still in the early phase of a re-build, especially if we don't have the QB (spoiler alert, we don't).  

Sometimes you just have to see potential and growth from a team at this phase of the process, expecting elite play in week 1 out of guys like Scourton is a picture perfect recipe for ending up upset.

If that's what he does in his first game coming off the freak injury and less practice time while recovering, I'm extremely optimistic of what he can turn into with more experience and time to work on his craft.

Dave Canales was asked why the young guys don't play on defense but do on offense.  He basically said he would like to see the young guys play more, but will leave that up to evero.  Doesn't sound like a head coach
