This dude is gonna be the first rookie since LT to win the DPOY. Not such a bold prediction since the season started, but pretty bold because it’s such a lofty expectation.
I’ve never seen a defensive player dominate a game in so many facets like this. I know the Eagles O-line was depleted but stuff like the fumble and running back to tackle the halfback blows through the eyeball test. There were so many plays where other WFC D-Linemen broke through or made big plays because of something Chase did. I think on the first six plays, the Eagles QB was sacked or knocked down on all of them.
He’s like a combination of Javon Kearse’s athleticism and Ray Lewis’s football smarts. As long as he doesn’t have injury issues moving forward, he will dominate the league for a long time.
