Since 2018:
Milano - 5 INT, 1 FF, 9.0 sacks, 41 TFL
Edmunds - 4 INT, 2 FF, 6.5 sacks, 30 TFL
Wow what a huge difference! Not having same impact as an elite WLB (who is allowed to play with more freedom) doesn’t mean a player doesn’t make an impact.
The way Mahomes told his team to force 2 fumbles in the red zone is truly inspiring. He’s also motivated his RBs to go for 6.8 ypc. That’s what makes him better than Allen.
Lamar is relying on Mark Andrew’s like crazy right now, who has a 36.5% target share so far. For reference, Diggs is at 27.5% so far this year and Kupp (who had 191 targets) was at 31.7% last year. They should just double him every play and force Lamar to throw to these other guys that he obviously doesn’t trust.
Tre White, Josh Allen, Tremaine Edmunds, Ed Oliver, and Greg Rousseau all needed experience too. That didn’t stop them from being rookie starters.
Yes, Dane Jackson in his best career game was slightly better than a rookie in the first game of their career. And since then Elam has been better than Jackson ever was during his extended run as a starter last year.
“*insert player name here* will win the job when they win the job.”
