Little did we know just how far his passion would lead him to not only break the rules, but show a complete disregard for human life.
Somehow, I feel like had Zimmer remained his coach and continued to hold him accountable, he would be just about ready to retire with a hall of fame type of career. Who knows?
Mike Zimmer had a way of commanding respect and compliance. I don't think Burfict disregarded Guenther or Marvin, but it's not a coincidence that the suspensions and major fines started in 2014.
