Would take Floyd over Clark all day every day

No question.  Superior in all aspects.  While clark has been a stalwart in the playoffs, floyd has been very good as well, just in fewer games. .79 sacks per game for Clark-  .72 for floyd

 

jerry Hughes .77 btw

to be fair, he had one of the worst coaches ever in the history sports to start his tenure as the broncos QB.

 

imagine playing for and being coached by one of the better coaches in the league (***** pete carroll, but hes had a good career with the seahawks), and then going to someone who is absolutely clueless of how to run an offense, let alone an entire team.

 

russ is strange af, but its hard to believe he fell off that much of a cliff in one year. if payton cant fix him, then yes, he is cooked.

It wasn’t really one year though. He hit a wall during his final Seattle year, and hasn’t had the wheels he’s known for since about 2020, and that may even be generous. Not crazy to think a QB could lose their abilities over 2+ years. Hackett aside, Russ passed nobody’s eye test last year. He was flat out bad.

Good for Denver but Leonard Floyd a better DE. 

 

Beyond the playing field, Frank Clark:

  • In the following offseason leading up to the season opener for the 2012 team against Alabama, Clark was suspended from the team for felony second-degree home invasion, for alleged theft of a MacBook Air.
  • On November 16, 2014, Clark was arrested for domestic violence and dismissed from the Michigan football team.
  • During the offseason on May 9, 2017, Clark was criticized for a tweet he directed at Bleacher Reportjournalist Natalie Weiner. Weiner had previously written about Clark's domestic violence arrest. Clark told Weiner that "People like you don’t have long careers in your field. I have a job for you cleaning my fish tanks when that lil job is ova."
  • On June 20, 2021, Clark was arrested in Los Angeles for felony firearm possession. He was pulled over by police on suspicion of a vehicle code violation. Police noticed a bag with an uzi sitting in the backseat. He was released the following day on bond.[54] After the arrest, it was reported that he was also arrested on a gun charge in March 2021.

He sounds like a mess and that's being kind (without understanding any context)... but how exactly did the police see there was an uzi in what I would imagine was a closed bag after a stop for a suspected vehicle code violation?

A cop can search a car without a warrant if they feel there is a reasonable suspicion that the occupant poses a threat to the officer's safety. Ergo, if they saw a bag that they thought possibly contained a firearm, they can search it and secure it. If you have a license for it and a license to carry it, you'll get it back after the traffic stop, no harm no foul. Obviously though, that was an illegal firearm.

Yeah, there are many reasons why whenever police stop a car they can go into the car and search it with her without your permission if something is done illegally that is handled in court on the back end, but it doesn’t stop the police from doing it at the time

No, that's not how it works.

 

I often have a backpack in my car with my work laptop in it, they can just pull me over for any arbitrary reason and then search my bag? 

 

A gun can be under a seat of a car too... so they can just search every car for a gun then?

Yes, that is how it works. Give it a Goog.

 

They do not need a warrant to search your vehicle if they see something inside of it that presents either a danger to them or obvious criminal activity, such as drugs in sight. Why do you think they flash their light and look around your car when you get pulled over? The only thing they need is "probable cause".

 

So, are they going to search your bag or under your seat for no reason? No, probably not. But if they have reason to believe that bag contains drugs or a gun or they see something peaking out from under your seat, they absolutely could. And obviously in the case of Clark, they did have probable cause and they were correct in their assumption.

In NY the police need Reasonable Suspicion that they can articulate to stop a car (ie: speeding, fail to signal, or they have a reason to believe the car has something wrong with it, among other possible reasons). Then they can speak with the occupant.

 

They can't search the car, it's passengers or contents unless they then have developed further Probable Cause. This can come from something said by the occupants or something observed. For example if they see drugs or a gun in plain view they can search the car or if the person says they have them (yes people are dumb enough to do this) then they can search.

 

Some states have differing rules on the scope of this, but the basic premise is the same. For example NY used to have the rule that the smell of marijuana means the police can search the car, it's contents (including bags) and it's occupants. That rule changed in the last few years & is no longer the case, unless they are conducting a DWAI Drugs investigation, then that rule applies. However other states may still have the older NY rule.

 

For officer safety searches they have to have an articulable reason to believe there is a danger & usually they will have the person out of the car in that situation to get them away from any bags, start by talking to them & if they have a reason to believe there is a safety issue usually start with a pat down.

 

Finally a driver could always just consent to a search.

 

So in sum no the police can't just pull a person over and search their car, it's contents or them without probable cause, and if they do it will be suppressed in Court and the case likely dismissed. But if they get probable cause then yes they can search.

How did Kansas City ever let him leave? He is perfect for their carefully crafted culture.

Can you explain this a little more? Jerry Hughes has played in 201 games and recorded 67 total sacks, which is 0.33 per game.

 

Frank Clark is at 0.49 sacks per game and Floyd is at 0.46 sacks per game.

 

Were you looking at something different?

 

Edit: Oh, you were looking at just the playoffs. Gotcha.

That's the same thing I said. I never said they can pull you over and search your car for no reason.

 

The OP was questioning how they could have searched Frank Clark's bag and found the Uzi during a traffic stop for a vehicle violation and stated "that's not how it works" when told they can when they believe they have probable cause to search.
