Needs 3 I believe
we're blessed to have him. I didn't want him when he was drafted, lol.
Aldon is probably the best young pass rusher in the NFL right now.

Well, it's either him or Ware.
Its hard to compare JPP and Aldon... Aldon has Justin Smith to set up the pass rush for him.. JPP being a D End has to do it all his self. Cant compare them.. I had the same arguement with a friend who was saying JJ Watt was the best player out there and that Aldon got lucky that the bears Oline gave up for him to get that many sacks today.

Agree that it can be difficult to compare across positions.

But it also difficult to seriously beleive that Smith was just lucky and JPP does it all by himself.

I don't see any way that record is not his by the end of the year.

i can see the point, but i do not agree with it.

JPP has/had a ton of help on his line. Osi, Tuck, bernard, robbins, Kiwanuka, and a very good scheme.
