Man, hard not to absolutely love the guy.

He's always just seemed like a genuine good dude. Hope he continues to get his.

Side note - man, what the hell happened to Derrick Nnadi?

How many guys can you think of that showed really steady growth through their first 3 years only to decline and then crater in years 4 and 5?

I really don't understand it. Did he just check out? He didn't need to change physically or mentally. He could've had an 8-10 year career playing exactly the way he played in 2020.

But there's a non-zero chance that he's a street free agent entering September next year. And there's nothing that really explains why.

Chris Jones was NOT happy with Nnadi tonight.
[Reply]

Saunders ended up with the game's only sack, didn't he?
[Reply]

He also chased down Hurts and forced him out of bounds when there really wasn't anyone else around. HUGE play.
[Reply]

I think so on that run out of bounds for a loss.

He was set back on his haunches before the snap and I thought he was gassed. Then he straight up hauled ass to get to Jalen. I had no idea he could move like that.

Hats off.

Side note: I’m had his ginormous ass isn’t chasing me at that speed with ill intentions. :-)
[Reply]

If he didn't move at the speed of stone off the snap he'd probably be a decent football player. He gets his shit smashed in more than he doesn't. I mean, he's playing better than any other DT not named Chris Jones but that isn't saying a whole bunch. I think the DT position needs a serious revamping this season. Bringing Saunders back on a vet minimum deal is fine but more than that is questionable.
[Reply]

I think that was the sack
[Reply]

Leo Chenal was also credited with a sack. Another rookie making a strong contribution.
[Reply]

You're probably correct. That was an outstanding play, though.
[Reply]

Dude was trucking it to make it happen, I didn't think there was a chance he'd be able to close.
[Reply]

holthus was going on and on about how he was going to put saunders chasing hurts out of bounds as a legendary play

gonna have to go back and listen

but this set up them kicking a FG
[Reply]

yep, you can argue this was a highly underrated play
