PaattMaann Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Yet he has more run stops than any other DL in the league (at least that's what I thought I read somewhere). Can anyone confirm? if a run stop means he made the tackle five yards down the field, then possibly...b/c thats where Dareus has been getting pushed consistently all year long (Aside from two and a half games this season where hes been a force) kids been feast or famine, and unfortunately mostly famine - hoping yesterday was a turning point/prove it game for him and he can stop getting bullied all over the field anyone who says he has had a great year clearly does not watch the LOS, def. go back and watch the LOS the first 8 weeks of this season and see him get blown off the ball b/c he stands up...more of yesterdays Dareus is needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Dareus has been one of the best DTs in the NFL this season. Not sure why others aren't seeing this. A DL not blossoming until his 3rd season? Nah, never heard of that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 What an absolute monster when he really decides to bring it. He was virtually unblockable today. About the only time he was neutralized was when guys were trying to rip his jersey off with tow hands. There were times today when there were Jets interior OLinemen hanging off him like monkey bars while he went about the business of ripping up the Jets offense. If somebody can figure out the trigger that fires him up like today, he could becomes the Bills next PhatPat. He was awesome. And he clearly relishes those chances to bull rush the RT. When he gets under a tall linemans pads they are in trouble. I tend to agree with the poster who said that he should play more LDE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not gonna dominate every single snap, but neither is anyone else in the NFL. He's had his downs towards the beginning of the year but I think he's been a lot better recently.

Big Turk Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) not even close to true, but since most people just follow the ball on any given play its useless arguing how much of a non factor Dareus has been throughout the year...2-3 great games and the rest have been hard to watch him get dominated Advanced NFL stats says otherwise as he and Kyle Williams are both in the top 5(Williams #1 by a wide margin over Suh) at DT and are #1 and #2 by a long way in success count... http://wp.advancednflstats.com/defenderstats.php?year=2013&pos=DT&season=all Perhaps you are the one not watching what's going on as I am pretty sure its not possible to be #2 in the NFL in successful plays and get dominated most games Edited November 19, 2013 by matter2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
