I've been telling you guys this for a long time now. I even went to the trouble of breaking down a game this past season. However with an above average line, he can be lethal. Just don't hope to go deep into the playoffs with him.

I think people might be tired of me singing the praises of Greg Cosell because of the man's great intellectual honesty.   

I like Warren Sharp, but he could learn from Greg.   The strength of one's assertions should match the certainty and actual support one has for said assertion.


Warren must have skipped the Super Bowl where Mahomes struggled because he had just half the pressure DJ was seeing.  Warren must have been out of the country when the Chiefs poured all sorts of resources to shoring up the line after that defeat.


I would have been fine if Warren expressed doubts about Schoen's claim.  He lost me when he took such an extreme position without the proper support.

I think Carl Banks has discussed what amounts to a glaring hole in Warren's dissertation.   All pressures are not equal.  There are pressures that are the result of the defensive scheme or a blocker eventually losing his battle (these were the types Warren appears to be exclusively addressing).  Then there are pressures where the offensive linemen whiffed either due to an individual blocking error or failure to pick up a stunt or twist.  Those types of pressures are killers for any QB because none of the QB counters against pressures (that Warren listed) work against such pressures.  Yet those were the types of pressures Jones saw far too frequently at the beginning of last season.  It's why DJ led the league (by a big margin) in time to pressure.
