   >Jalen Carter pressures (hits/hurries/ sacks):
   >* First 4 games: 20
   >* Last 4 games: 5 Feels like he has hit a bit of a rookie wall

   ETA: I just noticed the Eagles reporter and Jahns’ had different splits so for comparison sake:

   Jalen Carter pressures (sacks/QB hits/hurries)

   * First 8 games: 25 (3 Sacks, 0 QB Hits, 22 Hur.)
   * Last 7 games: 14 (2 Sacks, 0 QB Hits, 12 Hur.)

   Gervon Dexter pressures (sacks/QB hits/hurries)

   >Gervon Dexter over the last five games:
   >* 17.2% pass rush win rate (7th among DI)
   >* 15% pressure rate (6th)

2. It’s exciting to see how he’s progressed throughout this season. A whole off-season to hone his craft should do him nicely too. Glad to see we didn’t squander our picks gained by trading Roquan

3. This should be posted over to r/nfl

   I feel like every week there was a “shit on the Bears” thread about Jalen Carter having a great game.

4. Almost like Poles knows more than us when scouting and drafting!

5. There is a lot to like with Gervon Dexter. I feel like he is showing that the talent is there and with more and more reps and development he can be a force. I know its early but so far the returns on this draft class are looking phenomenal

6. hellya Dexter! hellya Poles!

7. does someone have access to the rookie DT pff numbers? including Pickens

8. Let Poles cook! We all questioned the choice of these DT, but they seem to be growing..

9. Love these defensive rookies. Excited to see them grow further next season.

10. Coaching might not know how to close out 4th quarter games, but they are good at player developments based off how many of our young players are progressing

11. This is why I was yelling for him to get into the game more early, he just needs reps in an NFL-type defense more than anything else, physically he’s a monster, and mentally he knows the game.

    Loved this pick from the start, and love it even more now.

12. The Sweat effect

13. If you ain’t Keith traylor or Ted Washington figure it out

14. “Yeah but he didn’t break the single game sack record in week 1 so he’s a bust.”- Poles haters who don’t understand real life football isn’t madden

15. The Montezeffect

16. Absolute monster.
