Unfortunately it has only become a pass rushers award because Fred Warner has been the best defensive player in the league so far. Through 2 games he has 2 forced fumbles, INT, sack, 16 tackles. He is a madman out there. Sadly no one who plays behind him showed up yesterday (maybe DeMo).
Hutchinson already has 5.5 sacks. Damn he is on a 46.75 sack pace. Haha
this territory is moderated
Warner might be in the mix. People talk about him enough that he might be the outlier from the trend. Obviously, Hutchinson is the front runner at the moment, but we see this every year, where someone jumps out with a crazy early sack figure.

Don't forget Bosa. He can rack up those sacks quick and he has a good partner in Floyd now. 2 sacks yesterday. Thought he was shit against the run though, got pinned inside twice on outside runs. He is usually amazing at defending the edge against the run. Yesterday was an everything that can go wrong will go wrong day. Even Trent Williams gave up a sack. I don't think Trent gave up a sack all last year. He looks good but a bit rusty. Aiyuk looks really rusty.

Either Bosa could be in the mix, if they stay healthy.

I just want to see Bosa back to being Bosa. He was good last year but the contract holdout and missing camp had him starting slow and he didn't jive that well with Wilkes scheme. Hoping he can get back to DPOY caliber Bosa because I don't think he was that last year. Really good, but not elite.
