in the National Football League because he might be nearly as fast as Justin Fields in straight line speed, but he's got the Mahomes thing.
He was actually better within the snap than Matthew Stafford for much of that game last night.
The potential is like we have rarely, if ever, seen as a quarterback.
And it's not the first time we've seen him take the gamble, right?
Like that first Green Bay game, we saw him dial up pressure.
We've seen Dennis Allen do this before.
But it doesn't always work out.
Now, the difference last night was that he did at least have as healthy of a secondary to work with as he's had in months, frankly.
And this still isn't the full version of Jalen Johnson.
This isn't the full version of Kyler Gordon.
But you had Jaquan Brisker have โ
probably the best game of his NFL career last night.
And who knows?
Is that going to be the last game of Jaquan Brisker's Bears career?
And you think back to the early, really even the offseason, with the way things went for Brisker last year, the concussions over and over again, not being able to get back into the lineup, the questions about if his career would even continue.
played the entire year, stayed healthy, and then closed out his season last night with what I believe is the best game of his career.
As impactful as he was as a pass rusher, as a run defender, he's at the second level and running the alley from the third level, filling run lanes with physicality.
And he was a part of that secondary that just had that.
the entire receiver core for the Rams gloved up throughout the game.
And so when you have that, you add in Gordon and Brisker as a part of the blitz package, and then you have simulated pressures as well, where Stafford looks as confused as we've seen Matt Stafford look the entire year.
