Still mad we passed him up for Quinton Coples?

Haven't watched enough of the Chargers to know if the stats are telling the full story. For all I know, it could be a similar situation to Coples where he didn't play much or and was getting doubled constantly.

Somehow Coples managed to get almost 6X as many sacks as the incredible Melvin Ingram. And Coples primary job was occupying blockers as a 3-4 D-lineman.

Coples is impressive, don't get me wrong. I'm just wondering what the specific circumstances for Ingram were.

The circumstances is he's not that good. He's Bryan Thomas and that's an optimistic appraisal. He had 1 good preseason game against GB were I suppose they forget to setup blocking schemes and the next 2 months all you could hear about was how Melvin Ingram was Lawrence Taylor 2.0 and Coples was exhibit A as to why Rex is the worst coach ever.

Thats unfair to say, can you imagine how optimistic Jets fans would be if Gholston got 1 sack in his first season?

Can you imagine the sh+tshow if Ingram had shown ANYTHING as a pass rusher this season? OMFG the media would be create a new channel bashing Rex.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but I don't wanna bash the guy when I haven't even really seen him play.

Looking at NFL.com stats, Ingram actually only has .5 sacks and 24 tackles. Wow. I know stats don't always tell all, but that's not so hot for a guy that was very high-profile coming into the draft.

Ingram is a little undersized and has no wingspan. I think the only pass rusher with his body type that's ever been succesful is James Harrison who is a fluke - like saying every 5'10 QB is going to be Russell Wilson. Kudos to Rex and even Tanny for taking a break from defending the Tebow trade and actually making a good move passing up Ingram for Coples.

Agreed. Very good pick.

Now if only QC would get those disgusting brands removed from his arms....

Geez those brands must have hurt. I have never seen brands so big and with the scar tissue elevated like that.
