Nick Scott


Recommended Posts

I can see him starting the season as the other safety and then Ransom or Richardson taking over after injury.

Re-watching the game now that the all-22 has been posted and Trevon Moehrig looks reeeaaally good. He's sticking to guys in coverage, laying the hammer against the run, and communicating with the rest of the secondary to get them in position.

Nic Scott sucks. Ultimately though, coaches oftentimes play guys who suck but who knows their system and will reliably fill their role even if they're performing their role poorly. They can point to the tape and say "see, it'll work if we upgrade this position". I just wish more coaches realized that their job is to ultimately help the team win, not provide proof of concept of their systems.

Everyone has to justify their job to keep it.  If you can point at a player instead of you, that helps a bit.

Not saying that is what is happening, but if it is, that would make sense.

This!!!!!!! 

The first and last sentence. X100!!!!... And idunno y but I always got the hint Evero was that type of guy. Probably for how he handled the Jeremy Chinn situation. Guess it would make that DJ Johnson pick finally make sense to me.

Is he really going to be the starter at safety? Canales seems to like him. Reminds me of when we had Naruki Hakamura started and we all know how that turned out.

Yeh, I still remember that game against the Cons when he let them complete that huge pass…

I think--just a hunch--that the competition is between Ransom and Richardson.  Keep them both hungry and do not hand the job to an UDFA or a 4th rounder.  It is a motivational thing.  I could be wrong.

    • Glass houses and all. I find the people who are the most adamant about this type of thing tend to have the most to hide. Careful buddy. 
    • Also, wanted to point out, all 3 of the Pivot guys I respect and appreciate tremendously.  I know RC only had 1 pro bowl, but I loved his game.  He was tough as nails and played with a ton of heart and grit.  He was trying to knock people out, but was also super cerebral.  Fred is obviously a hall of famer and just as tough. Channing made the most of what he had and was hard-nosed as well.  And yet, all three of them let Steve slide on a ton of poo in this interview.  They actually cowered in several moments and I don’t like that at all.  Because for all the things I mentioned in my initial post in this thread, them not trying to reel him back in or hold his feet to the fire on certain bullshit, and feels gross.  Yall were all on the same competitive level as athletes, and yet, yall just let him skate on poo like talking about invoking using a gun on someone, laughing off how he essentially ended two teammates’ careers by BULLYING them and then co-signing it, and letting him completely sidestep accountability about his affair.  I get it, because apparently he invited you to his home to do the interview, but either talk some real poo or don’t do the interview at all.  This was some real softball poo.
    • This season’s leader, Daniel Jones, is averaging 265.9 yards per game, that would rank 12th in 2015. Even going back to 2020, he would rank 10th in passing yards. So it does appear that passing yards is down, but is that because they aren’t as good? Possibly, but we were spoilt in recent years when we had Brady, Peyton, Brees, Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Rivers, Ryan, Stafford (etc). As crops of QBs go, it was an amazing era to watch and most will end up in the Hall of Fame. I’m not convinced you we could list as many potential Hall of Fame QBs from the current crop. Will it go pass heavy again? I think there’s a good chance that it will, but it will require QBs that can consistently air the ball out in the frequency we saw in the 00s and 10s. I think currently coaches are favouring a more balanced approach, if not favouring a strong running game.
