Captains are a locker room thing, not necessarily a compilation of the team's absolute best players. Paradis is a veteran with a lot of starting experience in the league. Not surprising at all that he's seen as a leader in the locker room.

You mean there are intangible qualities to leadership, beyond physical ability?  Who knew...

Burns? Why he's been terrible against the run and has never had a double digit sack season but hes Pep lol

 

CMC? Not a vocal leader really quiet guy I think his boys are already gone and he's emotionally detached just getting his bread

 

Moton? ehhh he's okay he's a tackle but when has he hyped the team up? Or even made a SPLASH play showing a mean streak? Or even punishing the opponent for hitting one of our guys late??

 

Nobody on this list is gonna stick up for the team in dire situations 

Don't feed the trolls...

For you young cats, I remember a time when Jerry Richardson and John Fox tried  to make Peppers into a vocal raw raw type leader... Wanna know how that turned out? Peppers had his worse season ever! It was so bad I remember rumors going around ole pep caught a STD LMAO and that's why he was having a down year. 

But just remember you can't push a player into being a vocal captain if that's not his nature.

Some you older guys might remember all of this. 

 

Vividly. That was a strange experiment that ultimately led to him going to Chicago.

Most great players aren't cut out for "captaincy"...

 

...and that's ok.

Back when Jon Beason was on the radio saying "I know...we'll talk to him" 😕

im a dumbshit but you've been posting topics nobody cares about since you got here lol nobody cares about ron anymore bozo move on

It’s hard to ever want to post anything on this board and becoming more difficult to read. A large portion of the people here are so toxic and unsupportive of the team I thought we all love.

    • 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.
