I can’t decide if we should make this a mostly Bash McD thread ( under the auspices of he was the one directing the acquisition of all these Just above JAG defenders) or if it’s a 50/50 McBeane hatred thread. I love these stealth threads😎 Funny typo. I'd love to see a 1/12 sack. Everybody on the field and one guy off the bench run over and jump the quarterback. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I'm expecting 7 from each of those guys so that puts us on the over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I would say over if mostly healthy. I think Groot gets about 7-10 sacks, AJE gets 6-8, and Von gets 6-8. That’s 19-26 sacks so I think they would need to all hit the bottom of the range to get to 19. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 (edited) 11 hours ago, transplantbillsfan said: I'll go over. I just think people have been ridiculous in their dismissal of Von. I believe he gets 6+ sacks. That leaves 14 for Groot and AJE to cover. If healthy, I think both have proven they're good for at least 6 sacks at this stage themselves. Over Agreed on the Von front. While I don’t believe he’s a sure thing to be good again, I think it’s unfair to assume he’s toast because of what we saw last year. That may be the case, he may be done….but I believe some people are built different mentally and physically. Based on his career, I believe Von may be one of those built different. If he plays in 14+ games, I think he’ll get 6+ sacks. Regarding Groot and AJ, I think they’re both shoo ins for 7+ (if healthy). AJ has improved every season and has an explosive get off. Groot has looked like a dominant player at times- then he inevitably gets a lower body injury that slows him down.

Nephilim17 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I'd guess 7 or 8 for AJ — I'm bullish because of more playing time. And 7 to 10 for Groot. I'd be pleasantly surprised if Miller gets more than 2 or 3. I'd bet against it but he's a HOFer and his determination makes me think it's not likely but not impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbitmic Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Epenesa - 10 Rousseau - 7 Miller - ? I'll say just under ... Add in Smoot, Solomon, and Twohill and that number could hit 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uticaclub Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 It seems like most people are on the same page with Groot & AJE, Miller is the big question mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Over. Von Miller makes a big comeback and gets 8 sacks. AJ will be around 6. Rousseau has his career year with 7-8 sacks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My big fat thumbs 😁 I said “near his old self” and it took a year and a half, or more, the same goes for Von, I still think he will be better than many think, but likely still not the old dominant Von, imo we will see flashes, but not the constancy of old, I suspect 7 ish sacks, maybe more if we get lucky, 😁👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 under. Bean has repeatedly missed on Edge talent in the draft. I think that changes with Smoot, but so far AJ and Groot are average to slightly above. They both "flash" but no consistency. If one of them can hit with the consistency, they could be difference makers. Right now, not having seen that, I'm under. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
