Falcon Fantom Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I am one of the biggest Stephen Nicholas fans. He does not start problem. He has deserved to start for a whle, but keeps quiet and plays his tail off when he is in the game. He is a very solid LB in my opinion. I think that our LB corp as well as the defense would take a step back if we lost this guy. The middle of our defense got attacked last year. This is a passing league. Spoon and Nicholas are the best coverage LBs we have. I say that Spoon lines up at weakside, Lofton(backed up by Dent) MLB, and Stevie baby at strongside.

Tribal Chief Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 If givin a chance, Adkins would do pretty good in coverage to. Just sayin. Nicholas will want a starting gig though. I would rather have him than Peterson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falconidae Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Just wait for my "resign" thread when I get my post count back up...Beacon of Truth incoming!Judging by how quickly your previous iterations have bit the dust, I don't think we'll get to see you starting a thread anytime soon.And the Falcons aren't losing their first 6 games and he's never coming back.

wook21 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Bump. If Spoon goes down e are screwed and we dont have Pete under contract and if we do resign him Nic should start over him why would we resign an older slower vet before a younger lb with more skills to par plus he's been loyal and played the role he been dealt. He had to sit behind Brooking then he gets his start and then we draft a rookie who is often hurt who comes in and starts with no wasted motion u got it good ole Nic. RESIGN HIM TD PERIOD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight of God Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Resign Nicholas and quite a few trobles are over. Once we resign him, Grimes, Blalock, and Clabo our FA might be done! LOL!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATL Fan in the DMV Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I'll co-sign this; he's the only linebacker we have that is good in pass coverage. This would also push Peterson into a backup role...which is even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid-Nite-Toker Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I think Nicholas is going to be highly targeted in FA. A co-worker(Lions fan) is drooling over the prospect of them getting SN. Nicholas and Grimes are a must for the "D" to at least be what it was last year and hopefully make vast improvements. We got to have Nic.

We got to have Nic.I think Nicholas just wants to test the waters just to make sure he gets his fair share. I can't blame him. You have to see your demand so you can find your true worth. But that Detroit defense is looking to be NASTY. Just need a couple LBs and CBs. It might entice him but I see the Lions going after Barrett Ruud harder because he is pretty much gone outta TB compared to Nicholas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope the F/O realizes the worth of SN to the team like many on this board. He was easily our best LB last season IMHO and the "D" can't take that much needed step forward w/o him. SN can't be taken for granted, he's as much a priority as Grimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
