Eggs actly.

I'm not clicking on that sportingnews article about Bosa. I figured that might come back around as ppl looked to capitalize on the success he's had and our SB run. I'm not going to support trash journalism like that.

I feel bad enough for accidentally clicking on a Grant Cohn article back in week 6. Don't need anything else on my conscious.



This has happened to me too. One of the click-bait headlines got me. Never again.

No kidding. Pathetic really. Bosa was like 16 at the time and didn't even make any over the top statements himself. He was a kid who 'liked' a few posts. Why is KC the media darlings and being given a pass while we hear about this and 'pornstar' Jimmy G? Its stupid.
Agree. KC has more criminal issues and they focus on the Bosa politics. Talk about media bias.

In journalists eyes supporting Trump is worst than beating woman and children.

Obviously not an entire career, but as far as a rookie season goes, I can't name a better pick ever that had a better, more memorable more impactful season.

Truly an amazing season and was everything advertised times 1000.

What a great pick!!!

Aldons rookie year was f**king amazing man


Aldons rookie was in fact great but he had NO hype and there was no big expectations around him as far as his work ethic being questioned, his durability or him being a distraction.
Say what you want about stats but Aldon didn't have near the impact Bosa has had across the board at each level of the defense that Bosa has had.

You could argue a lot of different players, but like I said for me and what I was expecting and what he produced, Bosa has been tops in my book.

I'm just glad I called it from day one

What makes Bosa so good is Buckner though. Without a great DT to pair with Bosa, he'll just be another all pro. But with Buckner by his side- and Bosa continues to get better mentally - hes a shoo in for the Hall of fame.

Similarly on the other side, Dee Ford paired with either Arik or Solomon at DT, and Dee Ford can dominate games too.

No question they work in tandem. If they can sign AA and Ford is a little healthier next year, I can see this D line being even better. Remember, this is only their 1st year together and the longer they play together the more they will be able to stunt and play off each other.

I am really doubtful of Dee's knees ever being 100% healthy. Having said that, use the 32nd pick for Dee ford 2.0 and hope Stanford has some new treatments for degenerative knee cartilage diseases.

I hope we can sign Arik, but I'm doubtful there too. Oh well, getting that 6th will be worth it

True. Dude had like 14 sacks or something, but he wasn't an every down player for us. He was a pass rush specialist.

As good as Bosa has been on the pass rush, his impact has been wider than that.

True true. But then there's Patrick Willis's rookie year. Not knocking Bosa cause I love him but we have had some really good defensive rookies

Let's not forget about our offensive rookie show outs also like Lamichael James and AJ Jenkins

Llleeerrroooyyyy Jjjeeennkkkiiinnsss!!!

Great point, love Willis too and he was a monster, he was as good as advertised and better for sure.
I would say just as impactful.

I think it's beca we're in the Super Bowl that has me so hyped about Bosa, but you are 100% right Willis is there too.

Saw the article. Will not click on it. Bosa is going to destroy the Chiefs. And he will not be turning down a trip to visit the White House.

It's really too bad, in this day and age, we cannot openly support our party and candidate of choice without recrimination.

Both sides are to blame for this polarization of free thought.

I hope you are correct in that Bosa will destroy the Chiefs O-line and QB. But this "It's really too bad, in this day and age, we cannot openly support our party and candidate of choice without recrimination." this is bullcrap. You certainly CAN support whichever party you choose. That's not a problem. What is a problem though, is you thinking that supporting a racist, homophobic, compulsive liar, isn't going to enlist a reaction is fantasy. You can hate whomever you wish, but when you do you should expect a reaction equally offensive. If you're going to throw it, better be ready to catch it when it comes back at you.

Agree. that's why I dont subscribe to any major media this day and age. I don't think it will get any better, as social media now becomes the main source of news. Guys like AB8 know more about the cap than most poorly paid media guys nowadays.

Agree. When it comes to physical violence instead of reasoned debate. Something in society has gone off the tracks.
Bosa looks like his mom. And conversely, if he gets hurt she looks like she could suit up!

Patrick Willis has got to be number 1. Wasn't he All-Pro right out of the gate? Bryant Young had a great rookie year. As did Aldon Smith.

That's interesting. I'm not fan at all at what Bosa said, but he was what, 17 or 18 years old? Then we have two "men" who beat on women and children. Interesting the stories that are selected.

Actually if he's 22 now and it was 2012 then that would make him 15ish at the time. My daughter is 16 and she can be a knuckle head.

Thought it was in 2016. Even worse going back that far. Yet the women and child beaters get crowned.

+2. I refuse to engage with anything from the PD out of spite. Cohn is trash.
