I remember the good old days when it was all about sacks. Then it shifted to QB hits. Now it's shifted to pressure rates

You can't have hits and sacks without pressures first.

This is why sacks by players don't carry much weight as they are wildly inconsistent year to year. Pressure rate is a far more consistent metric used for evaluating pass rushers. Everybody knows this.

Excited to finally watch this oline grow with each & every game this season. Hopefully as they get more comfortable with each other we will see drastic improvements throughout each & every game. By mid year this line could become a very good one for Trey Lance & this offense!

For sure!

I'll be watching for:
1. Health at RT
2. Who'll be active as the backup C
3. Consistently at both G spots
4. Brendel and his pre snap protection calls

Anything you guys will be specifically watching for?

McGlinchy looked bad. Pressures, couldn't block LBs on runs. Mediocre at best. Is this his last year on his contract?

Aaron Banks and MM are very similar in how the they struggle with DE's and DT's with any kind of lateral quickness. If they lose early it's going to be a quick pressure because they can't recover with high pad level.

I think Banks is gonna struggle this year and our RT spot is the biggest concern of any position.
