Thanks for the numbers. I do think he flashes a lot on the field. He's one of the few brights spots so far IMO. yes he seems to disappear for a while at times, but through 4 games we've seen some obvious progress towards what we know he can be.

He's clearly a solid pass rusher. There have already been so many plays where he applied pressure just could not get the sack. Hope he works out long term but understand it's a business.

Lol!! Someone here mentioned to bring back DJ Swearinger, he’s ready.

Well, why not Archuletta or Doughty while we're at it (speaking of painful memories)?

Really bummed about Reeves. I've always thought when he was actually playing D (and not just special teams) he was very effective, and I was hoping that he was going to get a chance for some more playing time. Sounds like he may be out for the season - -a partial ACL tear is not something to sneeze at.

I think a lot of that is sustained success on defense is so difficult in the NFL. I only see 3 sacks not the 4 listed above but that puts him on pace to be in same ball park as Micah Parsons who a lot of people on here feel is a game changer. We are always more critical of own team. Take solace in we have a very good edge rusher that doesn't sexually assault his younger teammates like Parsons.

problem with those stats is that Young is very undisciplined. It will brink up the pressure stats, but he over pursues giving up big runs a LOT!! when he blew up his knee he was having the same issues and the team defense got a lot better when he went on IR. According to Rivera at the time the rise in the defense was due to playing more disciplined and it sure looked like it. So when does he improve on that front?

Empty stats if you ask me. He never makes any game changing plays. No sack, fumble- change the momentum type of plays. I watched the Ravens and Pittsburgh and Watt is just a menace all game long.

Watt is the best in the league. Might as well say Josh Allen is no Patrick Mahomes

But that is who Chase is supposed to be. The best or one of the best.

I hear what you are saying and that is a fine expectation with the 2nd overall pick but I will gladly take top ten sack production. Of course I do hope he improves his game.

Agree 100 percent. Chase Young was supposed to be a generational talent at number 2 overall. Like Watt. I don’t ever recall watching him play and just wreck the other team. Has had some very good games but way too few and far between. Especially with the rest of that line. Bottom line I expected HOF great and so far we have gotten good when healthy. It is a let down for sure.
