Bucs 2015 Game And What It Means
#16

I just think that the fact he surpassed Hunt after just 1 year, then was given more rotation snaps last year, shouldn't be overlooked; again, he didn't embarass himself out there in '16.

But yes, Smith should be on the team.

Edit: Yes, I know surpassing Hunt isn't a difficult thing :p. But he was a Zimmer guy! Still his fault!

Would you take Clarke over Gilberry if it came down to it if Chris Smith replaced MJ?

I know you're a PFF guy (or at least used to be).
Last year in limited snaps, Gilberry was 72.2 rating and Clarke was 45.5.
Plus Gilberry has the ability to swing inside on passing downs.
Both Gilberry and Clarke have contracts expiring after this season and Gilberry only costs an extra $500k against the cap compared to Clarke.

EDIT - Gilberry had 2.5 sacks, 5 combine tackles, and 1 TFL in 140 defensive snaps for the Bengals, whereas Will Clarke had 4.0 sacks, 15 combined tackles, 1 PD, and 1 TFL in 372 defensive snaps.
Projecting Gilberry's stats over the same number of snaps as Clarke would be 6.5 sacks, 13 combined tackles, and 2 TFL.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

Sorry for Party Rocking!
