Of those 3 (not including Bailey because I just don't see him contributing in that way) Catapano is clearly the most talented rusher...so no, I don't believe 10 sacks or more from him is unreasonable at all actually. Hopefully I'm right. We'll see.

Because he's not JJ Watt and we don't know how explosive he will be after adding 20 pounds to his frame?

In fact, it might never have been done.

its true...i realize that. However the game is constantly evolving and you are seeing more rushers coming from the inside now than there used to be. Before Watt no interior guys had 20 sacks either but more will come. If healthy Houston and Hali will both post double digit sacks...we know that. Imagine a 3rd guy doing it as well? It would make the defense dominant and I believe we have the personnel to do it. Catapano is better than most realize. Even if we got 8 (1 every other game) out of him it would go a long way.

Mike Catapano = JJ Watt
Sanders Commings = Ed Reed
Travis Kelce = Greatest TE evar!1!!!!1!11

Cmon now! :-/ I do think they all have potential but never said any of that. I especially think Catapano and Kelce have alot of potential but not saying that Pestilence. And you are taking my words out of context. I didnt say Catapano was Watt or would get 20 sacks BUT I believe the guy is very good. Also we have a UNIQUE situation in 2014 that we likely WONT have next year in that we have both Houston and Hali for the time being. Houston is in the prime of his career and is poised to have a shot at a career year. Even if Catapano (or Walker or Poe or whoever) can create a legitimate inside threat the studs we have on the outside can be even more effective. If Catapano gets 6 sacks but Houston breaks Strahan's record that would be pretty cool and I believe this is possible. But if not and we had 3 guys with double digit sacks it will create the same result.....and we wont be giving up 4 TD leads if this happens.

You know what the upside is to being a jaded, crotchety old bastard like me?

I recovered from the Indy game about 5 minutes after it was over...

People act like I was a giant moron for trolling them with Terrence Copper mania for so many years, but was I really any different than the people who are predicting great things for people like Catapano, Kush, and Commings?

Actually, you were a lot different.

Copper was a helluva special teams player. He wasn't some unproven JAG.

To be honest, if it weren't for the 38-10 lead, I wouldn't have even had to recover. I went into the game expecting a loss.

I found 1 :thumb:
'84 Bears The year they got 72 as a team.
Richard Dent 17.5
Steve McMichael 10.0
Dan Hampton 11.5
http://www.pro-football-reference.co...s/chi/1984.htm

I would love to go back to some of the old-timer teams of the Rams,Giants, Bears and Packers but we all know they didn't start keeping this stat till '82.

Not to mention the fact that those teams were built prior to Plan B free agency and the advent of the salary cap.

Kudos to you though for finding one!
