Do you think the best rushers in football just get ignored, Run?

Every great player gets chipped. And no, it doesn't happen to Clark 'nearly every damn play', nor is a simple chip as aggressive a defense mechanism as you're making it out to be. He was ineffective against the Ravens and they were rarely giving him extra attention.

And even when they do - you don't pay complementary players $20 million. You pay $20 million to guys who can draw fire AND produce. That's why they cost $20 million. JJ Watt was out there eating double teams (effectively triple teams as a 3-tech as often as he was) and still wrecking defenses. And that's why he got the money he got. Peak Justin Houston and Von Miller would defeat double teams and simply laugh at a 'chip' as some kind of defense against them.

I reiterate - just how low are we gonna set this bar? "Oh, well I guess he tried hard and the RB chucked him in the shoulder so onto the next play!"

You don't give $20 million and a 1st rounder+ to a guy and then act like him simply being there is enough. It isn't. This guy is getting paid like a ****ing superstar and suddenly we're supposed to grade on a curve because "hey, his job is hard..." or something. Yeah, so is very all-pro player's but funny, when Veach said "Potential DPOY" I figured we'd get someone who might actually demonstrate it.

I can't remember many DPOY votes for a guy because he got chipped by the running back a few times and so actual production was deemed too difficult...
