KT double digit sacks

[Giant Jim]

This is great, but how is he against the run?

He was very good against the run yesterday. Most of the runs came inside. Many when Dex was out. The team will need add DT quality next year.

 I believe many of us were saying, especially at the beginning of this season, that Thibs only had one move, a speed rush. He really needed to show he can bull-rush an OL and he also needs to be able to rush inside. Seems some of that is already happening.

People were calling him a bust. Lazily grouping him in with Neal as a way to make some point against Schoen. And of course any time an athlete has any off field interests, they are pilloried. Thibs has been a very good player. He struggled for three weeks, but has been great since.

Yeah, he's got more sacks then Parson's, but he's a bust !! 

[Rosehill Jimmy]

It's amazing the Giants picked him so high since he came from a conference that plays poor competition, at OREGON!

He certainly has come on strong after a slow start this season. It's not just the sacks but the pressure too.

I saw what you did here

some games he puts it all together. some games he's neutralized. he's the second best pass rusher on the team second to Lawrence.

He's definitely earned it and it's good to see that he's plugged away at it and continues to show growth. That's some rare company right there.


Maybe there's hope for Neal too.

This is just like every other really good edge player. He gets held to a completely different standard than anyone else here.

Aiden Hutchinson and Travon Walker the two edges combined don't have the stats that Thibs has currently. If they redrafted 2022, Thibs is likely #1 or #2 depending on if the team needs edge help or corner help with sauce Gardner. Getting the 1A/2A best player in the draft at number 5 isn't that bad.

I don't think so.  Aidan Hutchinson has a 1/2 sack more, 4 solo tackles more, 1 less forced fumble, 2 more fumble recoveries and 4 INTs to zero over their career so far.

not at all .. he's undersized and gets handled by OT's at times .. he does have great speed around the edge but it is what it is .. I like him but I see what I see

Kind of hard to place equal importance on year one and year two, especially considering Thibodeaux missed basically all of 2022 training camp plus the first three games of 2022 due to injury and then clearly wasn't healthy or fully practiced in the first several games after he finally got started. We saw the real player he is by the later part of last season though, and this year, with everyone healthy, he is significantly outproducing Hutchinson in the stat column.

I was referring to so far this season.
