I'll wait for your proof of that twist.

Funny it's always everyone else lol

Only 2 here made a claim? So yeah.

Here are some of my favorites. Unthreatening pressures was the best 🤣

No sacks though. They had 70. An NFL record coming in. If you don't close or that pressure doesn't push a QB into danger and/or stupid decisions, it's just a pressure stat. If the QB always has a lane or space to slide, it's just a pressure. Will Mahomes make the most of light pressure? Sure! Is he any different than any other HOF QB under serious duress? Of course not.

Sacks, hits, pressures all matter if they lead to negative plays esp. when it matters most.

Sacks are a negative play.

Hits can range from moot to negative plays.

Pressures can range from moot to negative plays.

If you're leaning on PFF, 35-40% is normal. It's all about how they choose to define their pressures.

The reason those pressures didn't translate into sacks was because they were unthreatening isolated pressures with plenty of blocked space to slide and move and run through. The QB still had to take it and make an off schedule play and PM is certainly special that way.

Now go watch a 9er Superbowl and see if you can see a vast difference in pressure

Then expect them to fall out of tier 1 if they keep that up. They absolutely have tier 1 talent but aren't playing like it and that will be reflected in their retiers.

He doesnt even realize that this completely kills his entire narrative of how we need to "get like them" before the season begins.

Everyone here wants to the top OLine after the season begins.... But that has not been the mantra all off-season.

The mantra has been that some here can GM better at home than the guys that possibly have the #1 collection of talent in the NFL right now.

Not improving during the season (something we all want) has not been a complaint.

The funny thing about these terms u latch onto until they die out is all of the new branches u sneakily force to grow out as u have no choice but to pivot.

"Tier 1 trending" one week.... Now u are saying "well... at least they have Tier 1 talent" like its some consolation prize anyone here values.

The people u are disagreeing with a say they want a better team overall than tier 1 talent at the OLine position while sacrificing the overall talent of the team.

So sneaking this "well... at least" line in is yet another failure.

if Tier 1 OL can change throughout the season, then NC's philosophy he is absorbing is technically BS. It's just a power ranking

Not if those 2 teams remain in that tier all year. Injuries happen too.

right, so saying you need a #1 or a tier 1 all offseason is false. you just need to be the last two teams standing to fall into those rankings/tiers

Except in the real world, the Superbowl winners came from that tier. But to your point, yes, the tier 1's going into the playoffs are absolutely most important!

This brings me back to the changing of the tiers, You will always have a tier 1 for the SB winner since the tiers change. That is no indicator of who's going to win, it's just whos hot at that time

I've yet to see a tier 1 (season opener) miss the playoffs so far. But that's possible. That could happen with the Lions. Stay tuned. It just so happens that both ended up facing each other in last year's Superbowl.

And no, it doesn't work in reverse. These are noted as tier 1 long before the playoffs and you've got 3 total points of the season to verify over time unlike an ESPN ranking that's looking at just who's hottest this week.

I'm so confused. DET just missed the playoffs, since when have they made it? Are we saying they weren't tier 1 last season, when Jamaal Williams ran for a Barry Sanders volume of TDs?

No they weren't. Read the rationale in the link as to why they are this year.

We are leaning too heavy on these tiers, just cuz the site didn't see DET as tier 1, they played that way all season, and missed the postseason. So yes, that can happen, and it did imo. It's the same group year over year, more or less. I appreciate the link, as now I see where the mysterious tiers are coming from , hard to lean on this tho, as it's 95% paywalled, and I can't see SF.

Would you take that back when I tell you they have SF's DL in the tier 1 also? Just 1 of 3 teams.

The DL is a clear tier 1, so is the RB, maybe the WRs, the TE, the FB, the MLB, the coaching staff, and possibly the punter.

So a non threatening pressure is a bad pressure?

🤣 knew he would come back with solely focusing on "good" and gloss over everything else. Par for the course

There you go. Now you get it. And if you have dedicated pro's solely focusing on just one position group for a living, are well respected and established over countless years, it makes those tiers even easier to buy. Or at bare minimum, the rationale for how they came to that conclusion to start.

I remember when we had Bobb McKittrick, those were the days NC

Id also love to see you breakdown why the pressure Mahomes was less threatening than what Jimmy faced. Guarantee Jimmy had space to move himself, he's just incapable because he's lost what athleticism he has and he has terrible pocket presence on the whole.

Because Mahhomes is better and can get away doesn't make it better.

It's still a pressure and it can still throw off the timing so, it's still a pressure.

To you 2 pages back.

Pressures are good for the defense. Bad for the offense. But not all are equal. There are varying degrees.

It's still a pressure and it can still throw off the timing so, it's still a pressure.

Varying degrees only when accounting for what the QB does after he is pressured. No pressure given up by an o lineman is a positive for that o lineman. You must learn to separate the QB and O line. Since you know, this is the o line thread.

Agreed. No pressure given up is a positive. Which is why I never said it was. LOL

The problem here is 9ers4eva still thinks Jimmy Garoppolo should have Patrick Mahomes escapability and wasn't looking at our QB through a realistic lense. Hence why classic pocket passers need that even more.
