He was so close to a sack on the play where Allen got out of the pocket. Had his hands on him

The bar is pretty low for him and so far he's still playing under that bar. I saw more flashes from him earlier in the season than I have lately.

Folks who want to judge George go and look at Trey Hendrickson's stats from his THREE YEARS in the league. The guy had six and a half sacks in three seasons before he took off. And Trey is the guy I'd compare George to the most so we'll see. Rookies getting tons of sacks at DE are not that common. It's mainly the elite guys who do.

Solid class but no superstars in it like 2021. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If anytime Karlaftis should've overachieved and made plays when the team absolutely needed it was today.

This place doesn't understand that certain positions are very difficult to step right in and be a force. He will keep working. He will keep improving. He will be fine. |

This is a defense mechanism that many of y'all have any time we lose just because you can't accept that the best player in the world didn't get it done today. The Chiefs were down a lot of guys on defense goijg agaisnt the closest thing to our QB, and they played more than good enough to win. |

His preseason probably gave people more unrealistic expectations. He looked like a perennial All-Pro in those games.

His job would be a easier, and we would not be desperate for immediate production from him, if Frank was the guy we traded for. I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here but it's a lot to ask a rookie to come in and fix that.
I do think he could and should be doing a little more, but I am not really worried about him. |

First it was he sucked because he had short arms. Then you changed and said it was your biggest error in evaluation ever and he was a Greek God. And now you're back to he sucks? At last, Karlaftis is going to rise again like a Greek Phoenix from Marty's ashes. |

My #1 Karlaftis comparison was Trey Hendrickson.
Many compared him to Hali. Guys that win with strength, motor, and relentlessness take time to develop and adjust to the NFL level. Both of those guys did too. |

Hutchinson is. But Kayvon is playing well. He missed the first few games of the season and is already statistically outperforming Karlaftis. He even had a strip sack on Lamar today to close out the game.
