DE Nick Bosa (Pro Bowl, All Pro, 2019 ROY, 2022 DPOY, San Francisco 49ers)

That was a hell of a throw
Yeah I'm getting fucking sick of these teams and their serviceable QBs just standing in against the pressure of our front 4 and completing pass after pass without it mattering. That man seriously looks like an actual bear charging at him and he's like "eh...hold on a second bear, let me just throw this ball perfectly before you destroy me."

I've watched him play for a long time out here in Wheaton. Frankly, he's surpassed my expectations all year. He's playing on a totally different level. It's not like we all didn't know that he could spin the ball, but this year is a significant jump for him. The game has clearly slowed down.

Happy to see a home town kid do well. For what it's worth, good kid and family as well.

That said, that pass took some balls of granite.

Little Bear is playing over even his high expectations!
Let's do a freshman comparison.....

2013 Season: (Freshman) Bosa earned freshman All-America honors by The Sporting News and College Football News after registering 44 tackles for the Buckeyes, including 13.5 tackles-for-losses totaling 71 yards ... he ranked third on the team in TFLs and quarterback sacks (7.5), and he had a team-high total of six quarterback hurries.

2016
Nick Bosa, DE, Ohio State —
“An uptick in playing time in recent weeks has shown Bosa’s potential as he’s been Ohio State’s best defensive lineman during that time. He’s now the top-graded freshman edge defender and he’s leading Buckeyes’ edge defenders with an 83.4 pass-rush grade. He’s picked up 25 pressures on the year (4 sacks, 2 QB hits, and 19 hurries)

The 19 hurries is an incredible number!
Looks like he's on track to eclipse Joey's freshman season.

Nick Bosa, DE, Ohio State — Joey’s little brother is making a name for himself, especially after recording a sack in Saturday’s primetime tilt with Wisconsin. On the season Bosa has five tackles for loss including three sacks.

I think heveryone has has 6 TFL and 4 sacks after the last game. Osu bio site probably didn't update stats.

Agree though, he's a beast. always jumps out on the screen when he's in.

This x1000. I think Thorson can be a damn good QB for sure and he has skill. I guess I could sort of get him balling out and being accurate the entire game. But when you have f*ing Hornibrook putting every ball on the mark, it gets pretty frustrating. Anyways, keep it up Nick, you look great.
