Shazier isn't special.

Tuitt is a beast, but I don't think McCullers has shown nearly enough. He's got the physical attributes, but doesn't seem to have the drive. Even with Hargrave out, he only got on the field for 18 snaps yesterday. That tells you what the coaches think about his play.

 

I didn't catch that. Yes, it does say a lot about what the coaches think. Is he still having problems getting low and maintaining balance?

 

According to the CAPTION THIS thread it shows his imbalance

 

I'll check it out. I haven't visited that thread, yet. I know that has been a longstanding issue with him as a player.

 

um...what about tuitt, hayward, harrison and few others im sure im forgetting

Dude he talked about it when he got drafted, it started when he was a kid. I should know I suffer from the same skin disease.

 

I didn't know that. I've seen the Alopeia term thrown around regarding him, but didn't know he had a skin disease.
I did hear that it's not just his eyebrows.
I worked with a guy who couldn't grow hair several years ago.

 

It can affect your ability to grow body hair, not just eyebrows. Shazier got comfortable with it I guess it happened to him while he was young, mine happened as a adult

 

I still think that he could play safety

 

I read a story about it. I'm still trying to find something that says he has a skin disease.
The listed his condition as Alopecia.
Not saying you're wrong. Just trying to understand what exactly he has.

Good ball players, those 3 I mentioned are difference makers and Good lord willing will only get better.

 

He wont be special until he is consistant, he plays out of control to often to be considered special.....

 

Mr. Shazier was a super fast LB. he knew it and used it to his advantage. He has since hurt his knee and or legs several times. Nothing real major but he isn't as fast as he was. He couldn't catch Zeke sprinting for the end zone.

He's still very fast but smarter, dissecting offensive plays really quick but when he arrives at the point of contact he's too fast to properly setup and make the tackle so he hits and often misses the tackle. He's among the team leaders in missed tackles.

Bottom line is he is a special talent, very smart player that reminds me of Troy, ..... Fast, smart that missed his share of tackles.

Glad he's a Steeler!!!!

Never seen that, but if so...clearly they have no idea what they're talking about! It's 100% about if he can stay healthy, not talent or ability!

 

So Troy wasn't special?

 

One of my doctor's referred to it as a skin disease , hair grows on skin and if you can't grow hair Alopecia=skin disease.

 

Auto-immune disease or skin disease I have heard Alopecia referred to as both.
