Time to make an appearance.
All this talk about James Pearce Jr. and he’s got 1 tackle on the year. 0 sacks. As a team we are tied for 96th in sacks with 4. And it’s not because our opponents were loaded with NFL offensive linemen.
I don’t understand how people are doubting our pass rush.I just can't help but believe that some of our "lack of pass rush" has been somewhat "scripted" ie not showing what we really got? Maybe I'm dreaming but, well know after Sat. night..
That’s one big milk carton….I have asked about why Pearce has been in a milk carton. And some have said teams are scheming against him. Well duh. When you have a guy line Pearce, teams are gonna scheme against him. And if NCST and Kent State can neutralize him, then we are in big trouble.
Unless Pearce really starts turning it on, this whole talk about him being a top 5 pick was nothing but hype. Very disappointed in his play so far. When you are as talented as Pearce is, you dominate regardless of the situation.
So it can’t be that Pearce may not playing at the level he did last year? It has to be holding if he doesn’t get some sacks? It HAS to be holding?Stats don’t always tell the story with Dlinemen. This will be the first full opportunity to probably get some sacks for Pearce. If not they’re probably holding and hopefully it’s called more times than it’s not.

Everyone is game planning for our pash rush. Even though the sack stats don’t show it, the impact of the D Line is huge. What’s our for rank PPG allowed? How many touchdowns have we given up?Time to make an appearance.

Thus far there hasn't been an opponent to cross the goal line on offense. Let's worry about the pass rush once that actually happens.Time to make an appearance.

Why would you risk a guy with his talent getting injured when you know those games are going to be blowouts? Save him for the tougher games when his talent is really needed.I have asked about why Pearce has been in a milk carton. And some have said teams are scheming against him. Well duh.

I know he just played 10 plays vs UTC and I think he played sparingly vs Kent State and after we started blowing out NC State. So, they are scheming against him when he's in there, they've showed iso's of double teams and other players unblocked making the tackles for UT. Guys like him shine in games like this weekend just watch.2 of the 3 games he has barely played. Also he creates a lot of opportunities for others with how fast he comes off the edge! He is fine !
So teams have the blueprint to neutralize Pearce? The thread is more about Pearce not the defense as a whole. The defense is doing great. Pearce hasn’t done anything really. Some of us are wondering why he hasn’t gotten any sacks through 3 games. He is an elite level pass rusher.Everyone is game planning for our pash rush.
