I guess I'm talking about finishing. That last burst of speed. Getting a better grip on the QB. It just drives me crazy when he gets so close and can't get the sack.
I love the pressure and I know that sometimes that allows another player to get the sack but I would like to see Nick get a few more.
I think for this reason, he needs, more so than other elite edge guys, to have that guy on the other side. I'd rather have him than not have him. The guys that are better are on a short list and the main example, TJ Watt, is a Hall of Famer.
I don't think anyone would rather not have him.
He's the highest paid edge rusher but if seven guys are ahead of him statistically and he can't stay healthy the team won't have much of a choice but to cut him in an offseason or two when they need to pay Purdy.
Reminds me a lot of the Arik Armstead situation.
Keep trying to will this into existence 😂
Bosa'a cap hit is 42M in 2026. Tell me again how that works when he isn't the best edge rusher in football and Purdy needs to get paid?

None of that discusses the 42M cap number in 2026.

Because he's never seeing that 42 M as a cap hit.
