I'll interpret that to mean January/February of 2020.

Wasn't it just 3-4 weeks ago that he was a bust??

Not hearing the to small, can’t get off a block nonsense are we, EO is a damn good football player, and he is only going to get better.

He seems to also enjoy breaking down Bills film. I know he does it for every team, but just seems like he gets a little extra jazzed when he breaks us down.

Another example of McD pushing the right buttons.  Taking away the "starting" position and limiting snap counts through the middle of the season sent the right message and Ed has responded.

“Ball’s out!”

[Dr.Sack]

Brady better sit this next game out. ??

[TPS]

He is fun to watch, but it's hard to focus on him when you're watching the games.  Glad Baldy does this.

Jumping up in the face of the QB on the throw and then running down and tackling the WR that's just freakish.

Running back, but close enough and yes just freakish.

Oliver has really stepped his game up since the bye...cannot wait to see the progression with another offseason and training camp under his belt.

[Dablitzkrieg]

This guy has bought in.  Kudos to the coaching staff not letting him flame out.  Great to see.  Next year he is going to explode after this off season.

[AKC]

Something else Baldinger could have added is that after forcing the  checkdown Oliver turns downfield to improve his angle and force a new perimeter for the receiver. He doesn’t lose his discpline and go straight to the ball but instead helps to secure a best case/more limited field for our D on the RAC.

I loved the Ed pick and he has really come alive as of late. He had an OK start to the season. He was disruptive but not really making a huge impact, but he was a net positive. Then in the middle of the season it looked like while he was a positive as a pass rusher he was going to be a liability in the run game. But in recent weeks he has been very good both in the pass rush and run departments. I think he could easily be a pro-bowler in 2020.

When the run defense was struggling I thought he was a bit of a liability as a run defender. I thought he should be flexed into passing downs and have his snap count decreased. But around the time they played the Broncos he has turned it on in the rush defense and continued to improve as a pass rusher.
