Joe Mathis, who I loved in HS and have been hopeful for his whole career has finally showed me he is dog shit.
He's just got too much Sark in him, he doesn't know how to be good or how to play with effort.
Hopefully Benning overtakes him at some point.
Joe sucks.
I somewhat disagree ...
He's not great and I don't disagree that there's some Sark in him ...
I do so him try though ... which is way better than P-SALM ...
What I see more than anything else is that he allows himself to get blocked too easily and then has to work his ass off to get somewhere ... which he often does a count late because of getting blocked too easily.
Mathis has freaky strength and coulda been developed into an NFL DE if he'd been willing to listen to the S&C staff and bulk up to 270-275#. Instead he wants to hover under 250 and be a BUCK, which he's just not. Has very limited ability to play in space. I think we're seeing his ceiling at the BUCK position, which is slightly above adequate.
Mathis isn't a bad player ... he's probably an average to slightly above average PAC player IMO
The problem is that average to slightly above average on this defense makes you look like you are slow and just adequate.
It's a good problem to have.
You cant say Mathis is average and then hate on Psalm
P-SALM dreams to be an average player
He is an average Pac 12 player and a decent pass rusher. Youre usually not one to join in on a circle jerk. Why don't you write me a 10000 word essay on why he isnt decent?

It's clear to me that you and Psalm have a consensual sexual relationship. That has no place on a classy website like this one. Your judgement is obviously impaired by the fact that you've given him your fancy feast and thoroughly enjoy the ring sting. You're making yourself look fucking stupid repeatedly sticking up for such a shit player and known flamer. It's getting embarrassing.

Keep jerking it to the consensus buddy. People made fun of him for the fire dancing stuff and being a Sark player. He was okay last year and looks to have bulked up so we will see how he holds up this year. His pass rush is good, and he can hit (injured the Rutgers QB and caused a fumble).
We will see how he does vs Stanford. Til then shut the fuck up about how players are doing vs jv teams

I just hate how he is 160 pounds, the way he ran after taking 3 seconds to realize he recovered a fumble last year, and the way he over runs every tackle.
I'll never knock Psalm for trying, because he does give effort, he's just a delusional Islander who missed the roids memo.
He'll be the Hawaiian Uncle Rico someday, but it's not his fault.

It's the other rush end spot that worries me, heading into conference play. A three-noseguard lineup isn't going to work against spread teams.
But I could have those stats vs seattle pacific, Idaho and whoever else these bums played.
