They feel that the biggest adjustments for rookies is mental instead of physical.

I read that article too, but I thought it was a dumb strategy. Doesn't running the plays on the field reinforce the work the guys do in the classroom? I would think some players would learn faster form doing it on the field. Weird coaching philosophy down there in Miami.
