Chase Young #99

Definitely needs to develop more pass rush moves if he's going to live up to the #2 overall pick, I'm just saying that his reputation and ability is drawing the attention of offensive coordinators. It's up to our defensive staff to scheme in such a way that lets the play of those around Chase actually be elevated by the attention Chase draws. They haven't, and that's probably the most disappointing thing about this year, to me. Del Rio hasn't schemed up anything. I'm getting very concerned that he and Rivera have a way of doing things, and they're either just too rigid to deviate from it, or they lack the strategic thought to adjust successfully.

Chase won't be a HOF player if he doesn't improve with his pass rush repertoire but it's also insane to call him a bust right now. I don't think his coaches are doing him any favors.

That explains why the PFF grades are high but the sack numbers are low. It also says that Washington either just noticed this because of the analytics exercise, or they noticed it earlier but have failed to scheme anything up defensively to take advantage. If you know you're going to get chipped more often there should be something you can do schematically to counter it. Hasn't happened yet. Now that he publicly pointed to it, he better show that he has a plan to counter it.

I'd run games on 3rd down. Send the ends inside and let the DTs loop around. The ends won't be where the chipping blockers expect them to be.

This falls on Rivera and Del Rio.....I think the answer is sending an extra pass rusher such as a LB, a safety, or even a corner......if one or more blockers are occupying Young and Sweat then the answer is to send a extra blitzer....the offense can't block everyone in this case.

Of course you're right. Del Rio couldn't even buy a clue on how to call an effective game for his defense. This is part of the reason for the low sack numbers.

As for Rivera, I'm damn sick and tired of his lame excuses for just about every deficiency. He even said that the "process" was more important than wins. To whom? Not the fans or the owner. When did winning fall out of first on the list of priorities?

I was a salesman before I retired. I wish I had known enough then to tell my boss whenever I lost a deal that the process I used was good. He probably would have paid me a commission for having a good process. Isn't that right, Ron?

I distinctly remember when rr was hired....he said one of the reasons he came here was because of the talent and that he didn't think he needed a 5 year plan to get this team to be a contender. We were better....and it was alluded to that it was coaching bringing us down. ...well....this is year 2, and we are wayyyyy worse than we were with the previous regime.
So as you are a career salesman...can we agree that he sold us the dream?
And he did it really well.
Unfortunately....it doesn't come with a warranty.

I'm pretty sure when he was hired he didn't think he would get cancer or that Dwayne would suck so bad that he'd need to get cut; hell even going into this year no one would have guessed that a durable vet QB would get hurt. And coming in he already was handicapped by having Snyder as an owner.

That being said, I think the fluke playoff trip gave fans too much hope. I also think Ron has made a few head scratching moves that he does not need to make.

I do think he needs an opportunity to get his own QB, either through the draft or trade. I also think that a good QB would have us with a better record now, even with all the things that the team has gone through this season.

That is why the grades are solid, its why Aaron Donald is consistently the highest graded DL in football, but the defensive scheme is trash. It's not an excuse for CY tho, this was a "generational" talent by 99% of the draft experts.. So far Sweat has been better

I’ll buy low on CY, he’s flashed and still figuring it out. JDR needs to step up

+1

JDR and Sam Mills - both are not looking too hot right now.

He had an excellent rookie season. Truly excellent.

This year is highly disappointing so far for sure, but he can still turn it around.
I think part of the issue is a young guy used to success and not handling struggles and adversity very well.
But part of it is definitely on coaching too. You can't have a young player that talented regress that much and not blame coaches, at least partly.
Finally, I don't want to see him drop into coverage one more time. Ever. That was again the case last Sunday, and it was embarrassing, and it's not fooling anybody, and teams are taking advantage of it. It's like thinking you're smart for using a chainsaw to play ping pong. Yeah that's feasible. Yeah that's unexpected. But it's also highly inefficient.

Question: is it too soon to label Chase Young a bust ???

Yes.

As most do when they first come here, Ron clearly underestimated this black hole of a franchise and how long it would take to dig it out.

Making the playoffs at 7-9 definitely gave fans a false sense of hope that we were close. A defense that feasted on mostly backup QB's and bad teams during the stretch run last year had the same effect.

I feel like we had good reason to expect big things from this D. It wasnt fan over hype based in fantasy world .. this D had and has some premier pieces plus a ton of resources and capital poured into it.

Obviously the season has played out like it did so we and the entire NFL world was wrong but I dont think our thinking and logic entering this season was flawed.

We werent wrong or being fanboys to expect big things from this D.

Thats what bugs me. Its just odd. The pieces are there, the solutions are in house ... its just not materializing.

It also didn't help that TH had a magical game and everyone went nuts over him... Thinking he was the next Romo or something.

Yeah and TH's performance seemed to make people forget the Bucs absolutely carved up our defense for 500+ yards. And CY was totally invisible.
