gmenroc Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Yesterday was one of the first times I saw Thibs set an edge in the running game. Clear his speed was too much for the Jets, but he was disciplined in his pass rush. It is like it clicked that it's more than just lining up and getting past your guy...again...discipline to keep an edge and keep after it. He had a good game and was a large part in why we should've won it. Team as a whole is just bad, but he was a bright spot yesterday. We will see what he brings against LV...but here's hoping for some consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastershake Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Him and Micah McFadden are really growing, plus to a lesser extent Robinson (the few times he gets his chances. That's the only consolation I have watching this team lol, plus hoping Banks, Hyatt, Flott, JMS, and Hawkins play well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Flott has played better in a supporting role. Think he can step in for Jackson next year easily. I'd like to see Hyatt get more targets, but tough to see if he isn't open or if the QBs don't have time or if they just cannot find him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep... offsides when all he needed to do was get back onside or run off the field. I also blame the coaches. They should count and scream for him to run.

I would have blamed the loss on Graham "the Cracker" Gano, whose next good game in bad weather will be his first. Gano according to Pdub and reports has a lower leg injury on his plant foot (knee) that they kept hidden. Also the second kick the Jests vaulted the guard so Gano had to alter the trajectory of the kick... otherwise it would have been blocked back for a TD like the Broke Back game. Thibs on the Jests last drive in the 4th Quarter was flagged for being off sides which stopped the clock as it would have run out before the Jests could score. A major mental lapse.

He had half a sack and two TFLs yesterday. 10.5 sacks on the year. There was a graphic up yesterday: Most sacks through their fitst 25 or 26 games of any giant in team history.

When you see other top 5 picks making day one impacts and player of the year candidates it's hard not to be. However Thibs is a top 10 pass rusher in the NFL now. Neal on the other hand lol which I still blame the coaching on, you can't tell me the top RT prospect by a large concenus in the draft is suddenly a miss.

Fucking sucks because Neal was finally putting it all together in his last game and then got hurt. He was one of the only reasons to keep watching this season; to see if he improves and can become our RT of the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorBanksCarsonVanPelt Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Well most of us are spoiled by having LT here, who changed the game. Thibs... is following the path of Strahan IMHO. Would like to see him put on an additional 20 lbs but that is not his game. Speed seems to be his game and he needs to be paired up with a run stopping DT who is consistent. Let Thibs rush the passer and let the DT eat up the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see what Thibs can do if given the opportunity to just be a pass rusher with a competent rusher consistently on the opposite side.

Yes... with a real rusher on the other side and a competent run stopping DT. It would help to have a run stopping Linebacker as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinson is having one of the better years for a slot WR, think PFF had a chart showing he's one of the best WRs on creating seperation in man coverage this year. Also Cutlet mania. But yeah Neal was turning it around then another injury on this team. This season has been so snake bitten lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the podcasts I listen to said he came out of the gate hot but has more or less sucked since then. Joe Schoen really should have listened to me and drafted Trey McBride in that spot. Twice as many yards and a 78 PFF rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one of this offence has been productive lol Even if we took McBride we'd be saying the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
