Good Cop Bad Cop

Kind of a good cop bad cop situation. The player also pointed out that very seldomly does anyone need that kind of attention.  But, it made me think of what we lost when in one off-season, the team lost Andrew Whitworth, Domato Peko, and Cedric Peerman the 3 acknowledged locker room leaders.  I don't think this team had any leaders approaching that trio until this year.  And it is so important to have them especially on a team with so many young men on it

Doesn't surprise me with DJ and hearing him after the Titans game. Thanks for this Pally, awesome having great leaders all across 
the board and the Defense is the main reason we are here unlike all the broadcasters and analysts who only speak of Burrow and 
the Offense. This Defense is for real and they make it possible to beat anyone even if our Offense is struggling.
