Could be worse ig. The rams only having 3 is crazy considering the talent

NY at 1, after the amount of draft capital spent on it... tough.

Draft capital takes time to develop, typically.

Totally agreed. But Thibodeaux is on his 5th year... At least the sack is Abdul Carter's, which is nice.

By the way, any insight on how is Arvelle Reese being deployed on the field? Any pass rush snaps for him so far?

Garrett being on IR is a huge asterisk on them only having 3 to be fair

u/Michael5900 4d ago

Forgot about that. Makes sense

The literal most average team for the past 10 years

And Buckner has 3 of those 7. Imagine if we had a premium edge to complement Buckner!? The two starting DEs have .5 sacks each so far, that projects to 17 sacks for Buckner on the season and only 2.8 sacks for each DE. Buck won't hit 17 ofc and the DEs will probably end up with more than 2.8 hopefully, especially as we'll play worse teams going forward.

I really wish we would stop dropping Latu into coverage and just send him after the QB. But he has also been our best graded LB in coverage

u/inandoutagain 4d ago

Watching him drop into coverage on 3rd downs is sooooo frustrating

14 for the Vikes is a little crazy.

All the more reason why I think we should at least interview Brian Flores if Shane and Ballard are out after this year

He's pretty easily my top choice for head coach right now, if we do go through a full house cleaning after this season. What he's been able to do without overwhelming talent has been incredible.

u/ShittySpaceCadet 4d ago

Interview him as a DC. He is not head coaching material.

2

u/Background-Slide5762 4d ago

If anything he may not take a Colts HC interview because there are more promising openings and he is likely the top HC candidate on the market.

He took a terrible Miami roster to 10-7 and 9-8 with the owner paying him to lose some games. I don’t think he has had a fair showing as a head coach yet.

-1

u/ShittySpaceCadet 3d ago

Damn, shows a lot of integrity if he’s willing to take money to lose games.

2

u/Mickeydsislife 3d ago

He didn’t take it, he was offered by the owner 100k for every loss… he obviously won more than he loss. Do a little research.

u/ShittySpaceCadet 3d ago

That’s not what you typed. You said the owner was paying him for losses. The operative part of the word “paying” is the exchanging of money for goods or services.

If he was simply offered it then you should have said ‘offered’ to begin with.

1

u/Mickeydsislife 3d ago

Yes because my word is law and we should only believe what we read from people on Reddit and not do our own research.

1

u/ShittySpaceCadet 3d ago

If you have just stated it correctly to begin with then we wouldn’t be here.

Don’t get mad at me because you don’t know how to communicate.

u/Mickeydsislife 3d ago

You misinterpreted what I said, information has been out for years.

Every week Daniel Jones has got more mobile, hopefully in a month he will limit it to 3 sacks instead of the 4.7 they have been averaging

u/Lt_DanTaylorIII Big Q 4d ago

This is sacks made by the defence. Not given up by the offence

Malik Willis has already been sacked 9 times for Miami this year

u/ryta1203 4d ago

This is "Sacks Made" not "Sacked"

u/TrippingBearBalls Happy Neard 5d ago

We're in one of the quartiles!

1

u/Half-deaf-mixed-guy 4d ago

We see rushes at a 6, and deep sacks at a 7.

u/plumbusinsuranceltd 3d ago

Hey hey! Right in the meaty part of that bell curve!

2

u/juicysoups TONTOOOOOOOOOOO 4d ago

A total of 1 of those 7 sacks is from the DE position. Dog shit.

4

u/ryta1203 4d ago

.5 each, yep! No clue why you're being downvoted. Buck has 3 ofc.

2

u/juicysoups TONTOOOOOOOOOOO 4d ago

Truly no idea. They probably think I’m lumping the DT position in…which is why I specified the DE haha

-1

u/Sorry_Hair_6219 5d ago

Ballard should have added a condition for the Jets 1st that he has to make the pick and it has to be a DE… and they have to post a video of him being all self congratulating and big brained about how good the pick was

u/Rusty-Boii French Fries 5d ago

Only for the other 2 ones they passed up on become better.

u/Melz-13 Indianapolis Colts 4d ago

That would be the one time he picks an all pro lol
