Van Ness...not cutting it· Page 2

I wasn't aiming to give someone an excuse. I do believe he has had all off-season, all training camp, etc to master the switch. It's not like he's been doing OLB for 4 years and then on Thursday they told him Friday you're playing with hand in the dirt.

All I am saying is he's a guy who had one position, then another position as first two years. That will impact the learning curve to some degree. Maybe a lot, maybe not a lot. I'm just not going to panic ... yet.

NOT to derail this here, but Josh Myers is someone I'm panicking over. Eric Stokes. Hell, nearly that entire 2021 draft class was poo. And I'm starting to panic a bit about the 1st rounders in 2022 draft. I'm just not at panic stage over 2023 ... yet.

He is a bit of a bust considering where he was taken in the draft. I really hope to be proven wrong on this opinion.

Especially considering the plethora of All-Pro's that were still on the board at the time. The kid might as well start selling insurance now and bag his NFL career one game into his 2nd season. It's over.

Rashan Gary had three pressures in the first two games, and his 6% pressure rate is well below the 15.6% mark he had in 2023.

Lukas Van Ness is at 8%. But his number is still down from what he had in 2023 (9.89%), and he is just the fourth defensive end on the depth chart.

Looks like we have two OLB's that moved to DE that aren't really cutting it after two games. Hafley sucks. #FireHafley

The first two games had mobile QBs. It looks like the game plan was to contain Hurts and Richardson. They did a pretty good job of stopping them from getting out and running. Let's see what happens this week against Levis.

Levis has a set of wheels too. He's only lacking a driver!

Our D should get 2 take aways at minimum.
