What's up with Heyward?

In case anyone is interested, coming into this season, Cam had 263 career tackles. Divided by 7 (the number of years he'd played prior to this year), that means he was averaging 38 tackles per year. At the halfway point of this season, he has 21 tackles, which would put him on pace for 42 tackles on the year. As far as sacks go, coming into this year Cam had 37 career sacks. That puts his yearly average at approximately 5 sacks per year if you round up. So far this year, he has 2.5 sacks; which projects to .... 5 sacks on the year.

The coaches kept him on the bench too long in his early years. Let's not dilute things by count the years when Ziggy Hood was ahead of him.

Now he's a fully dolloped player.

Compared to last season, there is a noticeable drop off across the board. He's playing above average this year. Last year he was excellent.
 
of course you don't address it.. It's right up there with your "Troys head is too big" theory. Just more horse ****
 
oh,, well I am.. "Non Coach" is an idiot.


Is there any reason your acting like a d^@k? Are things that boring in Marietta, OH? Obviously the small stuff can get under your skin and I'm not even trying to bother you.

Why not put me on your ignore list?

It seems like your having emotional difficulties reading opinions on a message board. Like I said before if your suffering from something ( PTSD ) , please let me know via PM.

I already addressed this in another thread.


My reply:


Have you heard the two speak? There is a huge difference between them. One is articulate, the other, not so much.


One is a team Capitan, a designation only given to the players of highest character, the other is not.


One is our nomination for the Walter Peyton Man of the year award, the other is not.


Does this explain why I think one is a little smarter with more character? I'll add in a kicker for you:


I pulled this on the web on Heyward:

He benched 335 pounds and squatted 510 pounds, and was considered a scholar athlete at Peachtree Ridge High School with a GPA of 3.2.

Tuitt went to Notre Dame for christ sake. He has a hard southern draw. He is very intelligent.

So your saying a Southern draw makes you sound dumb???? His speed of speech and the sounds he makes has little to do with articulate content.

I made my case, and even showed Heyward's academic achievements. Let's not say all Norte Dame players are smart. If you are a 5 star recruit as Tuitt was, exceptions can be made. I tend to doubt physical Ability was the reason Tuitt slide into the second round. His scooting report suggests average football charter, and I quote...Average intensity and relentlessness

To twist a Tomlin quote, I'm not saying Tuitt doesn't have it above the neck, rather we are comparing his character and IQ to an player who's very high in both departments.

I think I'm out of this tread.

So you are going on record if there was a 2014 redraft, Tuitt wouldn't be a first rounder? Steelers got a steal there.
 
coach comes up with the craziest ****. lulz

Tuitt is plenty smart.
 
I've picked up a lot of things in this tail end of the thread. I'm glad there can be banter back and fourth because of the information generated and insight into the topic at hand. Thank you to all



Southern drawl / hillbilly mix / northern / central, all accents can have a different affect on how one is perceived but should never be drawn upon to the "smartness" of the individual. How about that kid in the banjo guitar dual..................


Salute the nation

Yes, and I thought Tuitt was a steal for us in round two!

I think your personality, cerebral abilities, character in general are all suspect. You make up **** to support baseless claims. Troys head, Tuits intellect and character, etc. to support your dumb *** notions. I've had to see your dumb *** **** posted in recent years and back when Troys head was too big. Yeah I was here then too. I was here from the get go. Now we have your dumbass while TMC quit posting from putting up with asshats like you. So yeah I have a problem with you. And you aren't helping a damn thing talking to me about PTSD. Go **** yourself.

If I recall correctly he pulled him self out of the combine due to a foot or ankle injury. He would probably have been drafted late 1st rd without that. didn't he have surgery before the draft?
