but no one has told me why he underformed against big volume passing teams like the Saints Steelers and Cheifs.
Brees Rothlisberger Mahomes had clean jerseys.
no one has explained why his numbers looked very average after week 8.
Injuries made an already thin pass rush even thinner. No one else is helping Geno collapse that pocket.
When our pass rush was at it's best, we had multiple guys getting to the QB. Atkins, Dunlap, Frostee, Fanene, Gilberry, MJ, etc. Good depth and rotations. It was a feeding frenzy. At this point, it's Atkins and Dunlap by themselves. Not only are they not getting free sacks from pressure others produce, they're getting 100% of the attention from blockers.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
