Playing on a bum ankle and less snaps than anyone on that list by nearly a 1/3 but tied for 8th in pressures with Myles Garrett.

He hustles and chases which leads to some plays but he's not dominate or unstoppable or anything like that. Solid player but at pick 2 was hoping more for like a Myles Garett or von miller type unique athlete.
No offense but do you know what you're looking for? Not every sack has to be a speed rush or unblocked run to the QB.

Good question, genus49!

I feel like if you watched all 3 games, you cant not be impressed with bosa. Maybe hes just boxscore watching.

To add to your point, not every pass rusher needs to be a unique and elite athlete either. Jared Allen was not an all world athlete but he was an all world pass rusher.

He's the type of fan who would have said Julio Jones was a bad receiver in 2017 because it took 6 weeks for him to get his first TD.

Judging someone's performance by where he was picked is always a bad idea unless it's really a whiff. If he had been picked #10 instead of #2 would his performance be okay? He's not completely healthy and we're only 3 games in. This entire D line will look a lot better by mid season as they get used to playing as a unit.

Mama Bosa breeds pass rushers. Wonder if she will have anymore kids...

Bosa is like a jedi. When he touches you, read your weaknesses. Get you off balanced, then f**k you up, throws you aside.
He gets into the OT quickly. Tap into their center of gravity gyroscope. Feel where they are most heaviest, then just throws em on their ass to that side.

Look at AA. He missed sack to Rudolph.

AA is the only reason the QB couldn't step up or take off straight up the field.
