Dontari Poe should just be called "Beast Mode"
 
I can't recall a DT with his skill set. There are only so many people in the world who weigh 340 lbs, and I dare say out of those select few (ok, in 'murica there are lots of them) he is without a doubt the fastest. Its not that he just disrupts the backfield; this guy plays sideline to sideline and can chase a runner down from behind. And he plays all three downs. He played 100% of the defensive snaps in the Dallas game. For a guy that size, that is unheard of. Any other person that size would of keeled over with a heart attack.

What is really scary about this guy is that everyone says it takes at least three years for a defensive lineman to learn his position in the NFL. This guy should have had a longer learning curve because by all accounts he didn't have any coaching in college to speak of. Give the kid a couple of years and he may well be one of the all time greats. I know it is early to say that, but I watch the guy and my jaw just drops at what he can do.

To put it in perspective, Haloti Ngata went to his first pro bowl in his fourth year when he recorded 36 tackles (26 unassisted) and 1.5 sacks. In two games in his second year, Poe went total Beast Mode and has recorded 10 tackles (9 unassisted) and 3.5 sacks.

The guy is inhuman--he is Beast Mode.

I always appreciate original nicknames not already in use in the league. Perhaps we could also call him skittles.

The only one I can think of at all is Haloti Ngata. he really is freakish.....

Start calling him the POE-TRUCK for the way he drags bitches left and right.

I know he's a big dude and can lift like a million pounds or whatever but he doesn't look like your typical 340 pounder. He looks a lot smaller

The shape of his head makes him look like a kid to me.

FWIW, Poe embodies the concept of Beast Mode better than Lynch....
