Ranking 2020 NFC North rooms: EDGE rushers
1. Chicago Bears
Khalil Mack, Robert Quinn, Trevis Gipson, Barkevious Mingo
There is not much more that needs to be said than the Packers slid. Mack and Quinn have 58 sacks over three years, while the Smiths have 52. The Smiths gained ground last year, but the bigger sample tells you who the better pass rushers are.
Beyond that, Quinn has bounced around, and Khalil Mack had Leonard Floyd across from him. Now, Quinn and Mack will play off of each other. These are two of the top pass rushers in the game. It is fair to think that they could both get into the 12 plus range this season playing off of each other. Who will you slide protection to?
That duo was too elite to stop, but the Packers are gaining not only because of the Smiths but the depth as well. The Bears drafted Gipson and signed Mingo, so they know it is an issue. The issue is neither of those moves the needle at this point.
Still, while the debate may be a debate, the Bears side still has the edge.
