He screwed up. He is serving his suspension. The coaching staff is very pleased with where he is, and our team voted him captain after the fact. That’s all there is to it. Why do our own fans have to make this out like he is a cancer to our team?
You nailed it. And I don't understand it. Yes, Nick is not as humble and nice as Dak on first impression but he's on pace to be statistically better in some categories than Dak. If Nick and the team has a better season this year than Dak's 2014 and 2015 I'd personally have to say that Nick was a better player.


The thing is on two of those red flags Damien Williams was stirring up trouble with the QB controversy and it was Damien's beard that Bob said something about that got him riled up. On the QB controversy Dan still started Nick during the USA game so he obviously must have blown Damien away using Dan's rigged system per Baker Swedenburg's sixpack post. Then he pulls Nick after what? 1-2 series and doesn't play him the rest of the game at all. And then names Nick the starter the next day after the game- so you know it had nothing to do with how anyone practiced that week. And then all of a sudden Nick was good the rest of the year. I don't see how Dan being an idiot with the QB depth chart is Nick's fault.


And on the Bob thing- as I said Nick didn't start it. Did he make fun or treat Bob bad after that? I don't know for sure, but if he did- and I have no reason to doubt that he treated Bob bad- it wasn't like he was the one who started it and he was hardly the only guy making fun of Bob on the team. That doesn't make making fun of Bob C right- but if we're going to pin that on Nick the other players need to take as much responsibility for it as well.


Now the mohawk- Nick IS dating a beauty pageant girl who did tell him on Twitter to not get it cut after her pageants. I'm guessing that she's also the main reason for him not getting one. Even if I'm wrong- if I was on the team, I wouldn't be sitting in the huddle like "Gee, I don't trust Nick on this 4th and one because I remember he didn't get a mohawk." Yeah- Nick is getting flak from the baseball team about it. But he's also got a pageant girl as a girlfriend and they and the other people here who "don't think he's a man and can't trust his word" aren't. All I'm saying is you can call me untrustworthy in exchange for me dating Miss South Carolina any day and every day of the week.


I will say that his suspension is very disappointing and what he did was dumb. But he will be fine. Hopefully he learns a lesson from this and we all move forward. Shoot- Bear Bryant benched Joe Namath for a bowl game and Namath turned out OK. Some QB's are like Bond, Manziel, Namath, Stabler, and Nick. They like to party, they're probably pretty cocky and confident people because of the nature of what they do athletically, and that's just the way it is. Enjoy their talents on the field and don't care as much about the "person" they are off the field. I'm not paying money to watch John Bond drive off in a Corvette with beer. All of these guys have issues- there aren't very man clean cut ones- Brady, Favre, DAK all of have done their share of idiotic things.
