No. 2 – Chase Young outshines Myles Garrett

Which one is Chase Young, and which one is Myles Garrett? One of these edge rushers has 2.5 sacks, two tackles for loss, and a forced fumble through two games. The other edge rusher has 1.0 sack, one tackle for loss, and one forced fumble through two games.

If you’re a Washington Football Team fan, you probably already know the answer, because it fills you with glee or something. Chase Young has outproduced Myles Garrett to this point, amassing 1.5 more sacks in the first two games. It’s a small sample size, but Young has been very impressive in every phase of the game.

Young and Garrett go head-to-head this week, and while Garrett has the more favorable matchup, my bold prediction is that Young will continue to outshine Garrett. They both may play well, but Young has been playing with his hair on fire early on, and against Cleveland, his all-around impact should continue to stand out.
