Jordan Gross

Does anyone have a site that shows how many sacks he's allowed? I'm just trying to figure out how many he's allowed, if possible per year. Because I'm very positive that he's allowed many from the games this past season. By many I'm talking close the double digits here.

This would probably save me the trouble of watching the entire season just to spot gross' allowed sacks...

LOL@ Byron Bell

Bell supposedly sucks while Gross is so great yet the difference in their sack totals was 2 sacks over the course of the season. Despite one playing left tackle versus right tackle, it hardly justifies Gross' cap hit of 11 million while Bell has a cap hit of 550,000. Obviously sacks don't tell the whole story.

Bruce Campbells numbers look good. Why aren't we giving him a chance at Left tackle? Oakland had him in the guard position for some odd reason.

How many games did Campbell start at tackle?? For that matter Hangartner's numbers look great also. Anyone want him to play left tackle?? LOL

And 6 sacks makes you a genius? Paying the guy like he's an Elite LT when clearly he's not. Come on man.

Gross will restructure, he's already said he's expecting it cause he's getting older, obviously they haven't asked him to yet, so hold your horses. Or FO isn't as panicky as the fans on this board. Obviously Gross is not physically there anymore but he still has the brains. Campbell has a brain disorder and he understands things at a much slower rate than the rest.

Well according to this site, 5. He allowed 0 sacks.

Compared to Gross' 09 season when he played 9 games and allowed 5.5...

I don't see why I should be laughing out loud.

Campbell got some time in at LG and probably contributed a few games on ST's. He had 0 starts at LT this season, so the fact he didn't give up any sacks is not very noteworthy.

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
