Not sure who would have such expectations, as that's not realistic at all.
Hell, people were writing off Jared Goff after half a season of play last year, now look at him.
Besides, if McGlinchey did struggle against Bradley Chubb, is that THAT big of a deal? Chubb has 10 sacks already this year along with 10 last year and is considered a potential top 5 pick. He's that good.
Even in the NFL, McGlinchey wouldn't go up against Chubb's talent every week.

Some people have very unrealistic expectations of rookies, especially top 5-10 picks. There isn't always some great separation in talent between a top 10 pick and a late first round pick.
