Dude looked like his head wasn’t in the game, no way it’s close if he does his job. Hopefully he got it out of his system.

Was waiting on everyone to come in here and bash him like they do Gano but a win tends to give people short memories. I am rooting for the guy as he will be a cheap alternative but he’s gotta be better than today.

The missed field goals were not his fault.  I'm not sure any kicker in the league would have hit either one.  If anything, it was impressive on the 2nd one that he had the awareness to avoid another block.  He went 80% on extra points and was probably a little worried about being blocked again.  The line needs to get better because this is how you ruin a good kicker.

There was nothing difficult about the one he missed

The line collapsed on both.  If he kicked that 2nd field goal straight, it would have been blocked again.  If you are referring to the extra point, what do you expect from a rookie kicker who just had the line collapse on you 2 times in a row?

The last kick he made was close, I was afraid I saw a problem creeping in right there and yep.

 

You can see these guys starting to drift, when they have those kicks drawing or leaking and almost miss, and then they adjust. The adjustments are usually when full blown out of whack starts.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
