Some analogies are surface-level only. You guys ever think about that Zootopia allegory? You take that thing to any depth at all and it gets pretty insulting to certain minority groups…

I hope the question to be resolved is whether they should sign/acquire a safety who is a starter or one who is a backup, not whether they should add a safety at all. -
Really impressed how Pitt has taken it upon himself to mentor AD. Not saying he didn't do that with Pierce or Downs, but it seems like AD is more forthcoming about it. Happy to see Pitt is finally embracing the leadership role as he knows that WR room starts with him and his example

Yeah, it goes without saying that he has to stay on the field. And they've talked about him needing to be smarter about protecting himself. I think he's learned his lesson about respecting the competition. the other lesson is that he'll need to pick his moments, not putting his body on the line when it's not a critical play. But there's a difference between encouraging him to be less reckless, and trying to restrict him from being a rushing threat. As for the bolded, I know it's counterintuitive, but I think a QB getting pressured and hit in the pocket is just as dangerous -- maybe moreso -- than a QB scrambling. In the pocket, you have 4-5 gigantic defenders being blocked by 5 gigantic OL, and when they close in, the QB often finds himself under 600 pounds of trench players. He's also mostly defenseless, especially when it's time to throw. Whereas when a QB runs or scrambles, he can protect himself, and he's generally not surrounded by 10 other players who can fall on top of him. He can get down and slide, run out of bounds, etc. If he's smart, he can use his incredible athleticism to protect himself as a runner.

that definitely sounds like he was going to say should and caught himself.
