Dude has 10 sacks this year, tied for 4th in the league, I must be missing the meh part

Does he? Damn those are some quiet sacks.

Smith has taken 574 total snaps, 71.22% of all D snaps.
Murphy has taken 472 snaps, 58.56%.

I think its about time for Murphy to start.

He has a habit of completely not showing up for a game. Even if he has 2 sacks he is invisible for the other 40 plays.
Again, he is not thee biggest problem by any stretch. But a first round pick needs to get more consistent pressure. You know stats do not always tell the whole story.

Exactly. The quietest ten sacks ever. You could say the same thing for many other years.
And yes start Murphy for the love of God!

I honestly don't know what you're talking about when it comes to RK. He's on pace for a career high, he's got at least one sack in 7 of his last 8 games. He gets plenty of pressures along with sacks. GTFOH.

Well there are three other people that have hinted at the same thing in the last ten minutes.

Do you not think it is possible to register a sack and still have a sub par game overall?

And you're all wrong, sorry, look at the numbers and watch the tapes

Trent and RK have been extremely solid this year. Preston Smith had one crazy great game...but other than that has been a ghost.

I think its important to remember with Preston Smith, last year Jason Hatcher was a major force next to him...although Hatcher didn't have a ton of sacks; he was a constant force, commanded double teams, and would collapse that side of the oline. Who benefited most? Preston Smith...he doesn't have that help.

Folks, we need 2 new starters on the DLine next to Chris B. Its been bad this year.

Basically this. Run the damn football Gruden! Feed Fat Rob! Feed Fat Rob! Feed Fat Rob! And then play action for the bomb to Jackson!

Hhhmmmmm....what was that play? Sprint bomb?

Im looking to see when Ryan got his sacks. He has 10 sacks and sometimes gets decent pressure but he hasnt been overly impactful imo. He has 29 tackles, 10 sacks .. so he has made 19 tackles through 11 games that arent sacks. He did get 2.5 sacks against the Eagles though ...

Cards Game - RK had 2 total tackles (which includes the sack)

2nd and 3 at WSH 32
(0:48 - 2nd) (No Huddle, Shotgun) C.Palmer sacked at WAS 41 for -9 yards(R.Kerrigan).

Boys Game- RK had 5 total tackles

2nd and 9 at WSH 46
(9:53 - 2nd) (No Huddle, Shotgun) D.Prescott sacked at DAL 49 for -5 yards (R.Kerrigan). Penalty on DAL-T.Smith, Offensive Holding, declined.

Packers Game - RK had 1 tackle, the sack he got.

3rd and 5 at WSH 8
(4:19 - 2nd) (Shotgun) A.Rodgers sacked at WAS 18 for -10 yards (R.Kerrigan).

-----------------------------

I only looked at his last 3 games but they all came on shotgun formations. To me that means he can beat his guy 1 on 1. I imagine the sack rate for shotgun is higher bc shotgun plays are usually longer route developing plays. Also I think RK excels at the outside speed rush so getting sacks on shotgun makes sense.

The int on 3rd and 4 with 40 seconds left I cannot say I remember exactly how it undolded BUT i do not remember thinking NO! WTF?!? Lol. I want to say Crowder slipped or the dback made a hell of a play. It certainly was not a terrible decision to throw it though.

No it wasnt a horrible decision to throw it but it was a horrible throw,so you could say it was a bad decision because he felt the pressure and hurried the throw.It was 2 yards behind Crowder right to Peterson,if it would have been on the money it might have been a td

Never did I suggest he was meh, and never did I put any wind in those sails. I just said he needs to be a factor. I never said he hasn't been a factor.

Well in all fairness, 69 made the remark that he "wants to see rk show the fuck up this week" because the d has been horrible. You agreed. I thought is Schneed just making an obvious blanket statement about him having a good game? Than thought , nah, he is agreeing that rk needs to "finally" show the fuck up. Guess i read it wrong but it came across as you piling on. No biggie. We all want every skin to show up every week. I actually think RK will have a big game. Mainly because i called him out. I know he follows me on Tapatalk.
