Been surprisingly dog-s***. Still, maybe he'll improve as he gets up to speed?

What is surprising ? Half of his career sacks came in one year when the Pats got Judon and Judon was wrecking. I live in NH and watched all of his games . He is a one trick pony - speed rush. Can’t do anything else . Belichick the commentator endorsed him. Belichick the coach couldn’t find him snaps . It was an ok gamble because we gave up nothing . He could make a big play at some point in time but the love fest when we got him was pretty delusional

The Chiefs happened to have a need for Uche’s one trick. Also, where were you making these proclamations when the trade was made?
[Reply]

Beat me to it but yeah, it's a useful trick and the one obviously missing from our DEs
[Reply]

He played 5 snaps.
[Reply]

Nine snaps vs The Bucs

Eleven snaps vs Denver

Five snaps vs Buffalo

What exactly is he meant to do with such small amounts of snaps?

Dude needs more chances because the reality is Danna, Jones and Wharton aren't putting up numbers. George is the only one with a respectable four sacks smh.

If there is anything I am confident about, it is this coaching staff's ability to carve out roles. One thing the Chiefs did pretty well yesterday was getting Buffalo into 3rd and long scenarios. The pass rush on those 3rd and long scenarios I thought were undisciplined in their rush lanes, Karlaftis many times going too deep past Josh Allen and allowing him an easy step up or running lane.

I don't know if Uche is the guy but it does seems like the 3rd down pass rushing role is wide open for him. Maybe the coaching staff didn't want to empty the tank and show all their cards yesterday but 100% we will have a better plan of attack on defense for the Bills in the playoffs.

Kind of feel like he's not getting enough snaps to work through his pass rush plan. His one impact play last night he was bull rushing the LT. A few more opportunities and he can set up the speed rush or whatever his next move is. But with 5 snaps its hard to win.
[Reply]

So this guy played 5 snaps in Buffalo and only rushed on 3 of those 5 snaps? What the hell is going on?

And why the hell is Malik fucking Herring playing so much?! I get FAU getting snaps but man Danna and Herring provide no pas rush at this point.
[Reply]

Every time I see Herring on the field I get frustrated. He's supposed to be a Mike Danna type do your job, good soldier guy. He looks like he's a borderline NFL talent way too often.
[Reply]

I really just do not understand how this team is rotating its DL. Even going back to the Cam Thomas trade.

What is it they're seeing on film that's compelling them to trade for these guys? And how is it translating so poorly that they're keeping them buried behind absolute scrap like Malik Herring?

This just feels like Hitchens and Sorensen all over again. We're putting guys out there because 'they know the system' but they're not actually very good at playing football.
[Reply]

Same reason they keep turds around like Skyy Moore and CEH. Clyde might be a great locker room guy, understand his battle with his mental illness, but at the end of the day he's simply not a highly productive player that they thought they were drafting. Cut your losses and find another great locker room guy with some talent.
[Reply]

Yeah I fear DJ is right. Thankfully Omenihu is coming back and knows the system.

Man we need to attack the pass rush and add another corner in the draft again. Gonna be a big offseason
[Reply]

Wish we’d use him more against fast qb

He could even spy off the line. The d line we have is so big and great vs run but horrible bs scrambling qb
[Reply]

I’m betting they want him to learn the system fully, and could also be saving him for the playoffs or at least later in the season. We haven’t really had a guy like him in the Spags era, so maybe they are developing packages that include him that will be used later on.

Or he might just suck shit. Guess we’ll find out.
