AZ54 Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Dexter did that without any help on the interior for half of the season. Plus he fought through an injury that clearly affected him for a few games. Drop a stud next to him and teams will have their hands full. I like Walter Nolen but he's not top 10 material and likely won't last to our 2nd Rd pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Yeah, the bias is crazy. The voters hate Bears. Johnson should've been at least 2nd Team, and Gordon should've had at least a vote. Dexter got snubbed, but I think it was the low snap count. I will have to check on the others, but only 356 pass rushes seems low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's definitely one of them. 3 hours ago, adam said: Yeah, the bias is crazy. The voters hate Bears. Johnson should've been at least 2nd Team, and Gordon should've had at least a vote.

When we are winning, we will get too much coverage. It's just how it goes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Dexter got a lot better this year - he faded as season went on, but he has a chance to continue to ascend given his physical talents. If they get some support on dline we can see some big multipliers fast next year as it should free up more for Dexter and Montez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly we need to revamp the OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think it is a name thing. Here are the players with double-digit losses to make the All-Pro Team on Offense and Defense, and none were hurt by a bad record: Myles Garrett, Cleveland 3-14 - No issues, potential DPoY Christian Gonzalez, New England 4-13 (20th PFF, 2 INT) > Made it over Jaylon and a few other CBs that were better Brock Bowers, Las Vegas 4-13 - No issues, best TE in the NFL Fred Warner, San Francisco 6-11 - Annual pastime, coverage skills on the decline Kyle Juszczyk, San Francisco 6-11 - 4 FBs in the league, but let's keep giving the position honors George Kittle, San Francisco 6-11 - 78 receptions to McBride's 111, it's the name CeeDee Lamb, Dallas 7-10 - Annual thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of the overall doom and gloom of this year we just assume Dexter didn't get better but I think his breakout season is next year and was better this year. He works hard to get better and it will keep raising his play. Also Billings going out and nagging injuries to Sweat, it affected his performance. Once we add Jack Sawyer/ DE and Deonte Walker/DT our DL will be much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongo3451 Posted Monday at 02:20 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 02:20 PM I think it comes down to the OMG plays. Carter has them and Dexter doesn't. Carter seems to be much more explosive. Dexter is a big strong effort guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a ton of good edge players. Dexter will play better as the line is upgraded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
