00:00that's going to be the story of the defense if they can sustain this this can be a good defense
00:04because the pressure and sacks create chaos it puts the ball in harm's way for the offense and
00:10and you can capitalize and be a high variance defense that gets sacks and turnovers we would
00:15take that all day long right if i said beginning of the season i think i said this if they
00:19were
00:1915th in the league and had a lot of turnover in sacks would you take that yes all day long
00:24and i
00:25think that's what they're heading down now if they can sustain it as much love as dexter lawrence
00:29and he's been fantastic through five weeks we couldn't be any happier with the level of
00:33production even though he had some bad penalties uh last week that probably cost them some points
00:36overall been fantastic the other guy here that we haven't talked about enough and we've talked about
00:42him but not enough because he is so good i'm gonna do a film review dedicated on boy a mafia
00:46this week
00:46because over five weeks he has been everything they had hoped he would be as a signing and they
00:52had to overpay to get boy mafia edge rushers get paid right and they all did in the offseason people
00:57were thinking ah 15 million for mafia he got way more than that right and it was kind of like
01:01all
01:02right bangles you're making a bet on a guy who hasn't had the sack production with the seahawks
01:07but you want when you watch the film you can see this is a very good player i understood it
01:11from a
01:12film perspective data wise uh he didn't didn't have the production it wasn't like a trey hendrickson
01:17signing where you're getting them for cheap for whatever reason that offseason probably because
01:21teams were strung up against the salary cap coming off the covid year but you were getting a 15 sack
01:26guy that you were hoping would be more consistent and that wasn't just a flash the bangles bet that
01:31boy a mafia was this was who he was on film and that he would create chaos create sacks for
01:37others
01:38and be a high pass rush win rate guy he is he's leading the team in pass rush win rate
01:42close to
01:43where trey hendrickson was for them for the majority of the of the five years he was here plus last
01:48week
01:48a 37 win rate led the league amongst defensive ends he has been fantastic he is a very good player
01:55it does not work without him even with dexter lawrence it does not work without boyamafe
