James Bradberry

He's not the most talented corner to be sure.  It frustrates me when I see the ball is thrown his way, and he has his back to it.  Yet all that said, he has plenty of grit.  He got beat baaaaaaaaaaaaaad by Alshon at the end there.  To have the mindset to say "F-it" and get that pass interference call, in that situation, bravo!!!!!  As a football fan, I actually have mixed feelings about it, but what he did was absolutely fair and within the rules.  As a Panther fan, I cheer for this brother!!!!!!!!!  Great play!

Jeffrey took that man to school.  I'm not concerned, ish happens, but it was bad.  Good thing for us is we don't play any receiver as good as Jeffrey for awhile.  And by awhile, I mean until we play Evans in 2 weeks and Brown in 3 weeks.

Gonna disagree with you there. Scheme or not, 4.5/6 speed is not going to keep you pace for pace with many NFL wideouts. Bradberry was bailed out.

He runs sub 4.5, the issue is that they play the CBs too soft with 10 yds off the line.

Need to play more press in zone and man.

and Jeffrey is one of the best receivers in the game.  There's not a lot of shame in struggling against him.

Nothing to celebrate about his performance today.  He was a huge reason the defense gave up 17 points early and Jeffrey isn't a burner, so it should've been a more reasonable cover for him...  but it wasn't.  

I have reached my limit with him.  Sure, he showed grit and bounced back for that deflection from Jeffrey late, but again, he gave up a TON today.  And he has zero ball skills.  ZERO.

Now that we have what appears to be a legit shutdown corner developing in Jackson, we really need to look into a solid cover corner at the #2, bc as long as Bradberry is there, they're gonna pick on him.  Gettleman's outstanding drafting abilities continue to appreciate for us...

Where were the Safety(ies) that should have been playing deep middle? That’s the problem.

Interestingly enough, I thought we were playing our safeties deep for most of the game today, allowing those quick slants in the middle of the field.  I don't blame the coaching staff too much for not having a safety back there on that play, but it's kind of ironic to me.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
