Remember Otah? Brown could be a beast for like 6 games, and then…..,, it’s a process, let it play out…

What's the relevance of referencing Otah here? Otah was a beast in 2008 and 2009 before breaking down and potentially having motivation issues. Besides, the team needs improvement on the interior now. If Brown has shown potential then they need to be making a decision based on current information and not what 'could' happen later. Perhaps that's what's happening here but it's tough to imagine him being any worse than what we saw Sunday and we know that Miller has started multiple games with poor performance.

he might loosely be implying Deonte Brown is lazy like Otah was

There has to be something wrong with the guy in order for him to not be playing. Otherwise this means Rhule is very incompetent 

I agree... If he isn't playing next game, it almost has to be an indication there are significant problems with him we don't know about.

It has taken Rhule time to replace some vets before but Miller is getting Darnold destroyed and dragging everything down with him.  He has to see that...

Brown should be at Fb leading the way for our RB in the goal line like how Cowgirls do with McGovern. But, we don’t have any coaches with a creative mind. 

FBs still need a hole or maybe they seal off an edge while the hole opens elsewhere. 
 

As it stands Brown would just run into a pile up for an even bigger loss of yards. The interior is so bad right now lol.

The are zero good known reasons to keep him off the field in at least support capacity at this point. Is he having meatal health issues, facing unknown legal issues or possible having a surprise male pregnancy? No? Then how could he be worse and still taking up a roster spot?

I get the late round rookie needs time to adjust and all of that but the bar can't get any lower. Just play the man at least some if he is worth a roster spot.

Significant problems like he's a rookie and a 6th round pick?

You guys see all these problems on the Oline on the tv broadcast / replays. The coaches watch the All-22 and break it down into minute detail. They know there's an issue, but they also see Brown practice every day. 

They're not stubbornly sitting him - he'll play when (if) he's ready.

I don't understand how some of these people aren't NFL coaches or GM's.

    • 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.
