Plus you invested in bringing over a couple dudes at safety, and drafted a dude as well. I dunno, but I trust a Scotty draft pick way more than I trust a Shanahan one.

Note: Except Morris. He did alright with that one.

Except he's already losing playing time to Scots guy by week 2.

Morris had 18 carries yesterday.

Jones had 19 carries.

Seems like they're splitting the work pretty evenly, just like the coaches have said they would.

Shocker

I bet if amerson would have come out and made an impact on special teams vs the rams he'd still be on the roster. Instead he was a ghost and had a penalty called against him.

The coaches and Scotty demand good play or I would imagine, at least showing some sort of improvement if you're not that good. Amerson has been on the downswing since last year.

I feel like they were probably like, "Hey, you're falling down the depth chart. We like you, we'll put you on ST, show us what you got."

Then he went out and got a penalty. Basically signed his own pink slip.

Amerson was good in a scheme like cover 2, where he wasn't out on an island.

Covering one guy for an extended time? He got consistently burned even in college. Shanny drafted him for the defense at the time, to play zone, jump routes, and tackle. Really not Amerson's fault we changed schemes, though he is limited because he tends to get burned often.

Thank God

2013 was just a crappy draft class. Not just for us, but for the entire league. Take a look at the top picks - lots of busts in there.

Bangee7 · 09-21-2015, 10:44 PM

this wasn't a real surprise. he's been thru a few different coaches now & the play didn't seem to be getting any better.

too bad, he has good size.

I wish him well.

I did not realize that Kearse was resigned in the process.....Cool

The odd thing is Amerson played pretty well as a Rookie then dropped off.
Hopefully he can find that fire again and make something of his career.

I didn't really understand that either. I remember thinking that season we easily had a #2 that could step into a #1 if/when DHall got injured in the future... Hmmm...

The Colts are missing their top 3 CB's to injury, wouldn't surprise me if they put a claim for him tomorrow.
