  7. Why was I sure it was going to be a report of him having a season ending injury halfway through reading the title?

  9. He should think that. It would be pretty bad if he thought he already hit his peak halfway through his rookie season.

  10. I don’t get the hate on this kid. He made a massive play against the Rams and has gotten better each game. Not a world beater yet but he keeps improving I’m here for it.

  12. I’m so traumatized that when I read the first few words I was like oh no another ACL?

  14. Might be the rookie im the most excited about now that Mykel is out for the time being.

    Started training camp with reports of looking “not NFL ready at all,” but he’s been improving every single week, and that forced fumble at the 1-yard line was our best play of the SEASON and was sick as fuck. Hope this guy can keep on developing and we finally have a star Defensive Tackle!

  18. I mean, if this is all you got, that’s terrifying.

    I don’t expect much from a pass rush perspective but please surprise us.

  19. He’s right. There are a few snaps this season where he looks a lot like a certain other DT who wears 95. Whether or not he ever realizes that potential is very much up in the air and basically being the last man standing on the D-line only makes his job harder.

  21. We need to give up on first rounders. I can’t think of a good pick since Bosa. Even before that it wasn’t great…we picked DeFo but then we traded him. Give up on the firsts and take these fire sale players! Q Williams for a first and second seems high but he’s a lock.

  23. And now he’s on the injury report. They can’t even get through a F’ing week of practice without a new injury.
