Its the 2020s safeteys have been interchangeable for a long time now.....

 

 

Yeah it’s hard to get used to that. I still think of FS as more of the coverage guy and SS as your run support. Our defense is different. Maybe that’s why we haven’t been good on D?

 

Honestly I’m fine with us not signing him and giving Ransom the reps. Let’s see if he’s our future, get him some experience. I honestly would prefer if he played over Nick Scott but I think the coach prefers the experience.

It's not just our D its an NFL wide thing, Safeties haven't been pigeon holed like that in a long time. 

Our D isnt good because it has no depth extremely questionable coaching and low talent....

 

Not to mention that even in this day an age I still feel like you need a feild general LB to adjust on the feild to offenses.... linebackers may have reduced impact lately but LB is the center of the defense thats were you need guys who can make adjustments.

LOL. 

Is god awful when he has to play as a true safety either SS or FS.

Dude is a joker LB in truth not a safety. 

Put him in a cover 3 defense as a SS and hed shine. That's the role he was born to play. Basically the Kam Chancellor role in the Legion of Boom. And yeah, that's basically a hybrid safety/LB position that requires an Early Thomas type of sideline to sideline deep FS.

    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
