The only people that would compare Arden now to Myles now are stat geeks. Nobody that has watched both play would compare.


I see Key a lot, but I only wTch MG when LSU plays Aggie. It's a small sample size, but it looks like MG gets manhandled by offensive linemen on running plays. Key is also not at his best defending the run. He needs to get bigger. Both are great attacking the passer.

2016 Garrett might be better. I don't know because I haven't seen him. But I'd take 2016 Key over 2015 Garrett by a lot.

The argument that Garrett can't play the run and is only a pass rusher is old and false. This year he has done a great job at sealing off his end on running plays. Also, you can't simply state stats and say others are equal to him. Look at the Auburn and the UCLA games. Both teams ran the majority of their plays to the right side of the field, away from Miles. He essentially shuts down over 1/3rd of the field based on his presence alone.

You're taking a 3 game sample size of 16 Key over a 1st team all American 15 Garrett?

It's VERY obvious you only watched 2 games of Garrett's career
