In Scot we trust?

Agree with this. We are entitled to be pissed off, a day after a tragic loss. We're not a contending team yet -- BUT we're darn sure much better than 2 years ago when Scott took over.


Scot has missed on things, but still early, and more good than bad:
1) First big move -> bench RG3 after 3rd preseason game. Took guts at time, right move.
2) Setting tone - whether right move or not, letting Amerson go was a signal to players. More accountability. Team culture also seems more cohesive, less rumors, and although not perfect (because of losses) - is better than years past.
3) Better special teams due to better depth. Verdict still out on kicker
4) Draft
-> Very good: Crowder, Scherff (always arguable Williams would've been more needs-based)
-> Has potential: Sua Cravens, P.Smith, Kelley (UDFA)
-> Too early: Doctson, Fuller
-> Injured/traded: K.Jarrett (was v.good), Austin Reiter (looked good after traded)
-> Probably backups: ?Kouandjio, ?Spaight, ?Ioannidis, ?Sudfield
-> Busts: ?M.Jones
5) FA
-> Good: J.Norman, V.Davis, T.Nsekhe, M.Foster
-> Average: Blackmon, R.J-Francois, Carrier, Pierre thomas
-> Below average: Whitner, D.Goldson, ZHood
-> Fails: K.Reyes, Bruton, Toler, Ihenacho, Jeron Johnson, T.Knighton, S.Paea
-> Injured: Galette, C.Culliver


Let's give him 2-3 more years, we're definitely moving in the right direction. We still had a winning/competitive season this year --despite playing more better/winning teams. We just got unlucky all the teams in our division got much better overnight.
