DE Nick Bosa "Smaller Bear" NO POLITICS

Bosa is not doing Bosa things right now with any regularity. He had about as much impact as Solly Thomas for several snaps against the rams....that is a fact....

I think the proper take away is Bosa is a really good player, but he is not a dude who can skip the offseason with a new DC and just roll out and be a DPOY candidate.

No. That would be an opinion.

Giants have looked fairly horrific so I am not even sure this game is a real measure. Cowboys, Eagles later on will be a good tell.

Bosa was double teamed almost every snap from what I saw. That's why we have Hargrave, AA, Jackson. Aside that Stafford seriously held the ball 2 seconds at the most on 90% of his throws.

He probably isn't is game shape yet. He's always double teamed as are most good pass rushers so that's not an excuse. Double teams come with the big bucks.

Will be interesting to see final game stats but he had 3 QB hits that game that was as much as the rams had all game and themost on the team

this dude got paid and then disappeared lol

Defensive linemen threads are the threads where people who dont really truly understand football announce to the board that they dont.

I agree. Lets take Bosa out of the game and watch the difference. Dude is a beast. They literally accounted for him every snap.

Graded 93 by PFF

Lol @ people complaining about Bosa after 2 games. People act like he should have 7 sacks in two games.
It's going to take a few weeks for him to get in football shape, everyone knows exactly how great of a player he is, he will be making great plays soon enough.

Man, 2-0 in road games and people still complaining about things.🥴

highest graded defender on the team yesterday per PFF, again, so sacks are bound to happen if he plays like this. Thursday

Cosigned. And I'll add another adjective: *really* Pretty bad one at that.

Well that's pretty much every thread on this board.

I think the lack of sacks is due to teams thusfar employing a quick pass attack on our defense, which our defense seems willing to let unfold. This quick passing has neutered our pass rush as QBs are looking to get the ball out before the rush can really get in their face. I've noticed our guys up front continuing to beat their opponents and Bosa coming close to the QB all the time. I'm guessing if teams were looking for down field development, we'd have more sacks on the year. When it's time for teams to try and come back from a deficit, and need to push down field, the pressure has been more apparent.
