1.) Crazy talented
2.) Driven to WIN, not just put up stats (Chase slamming his helmet after the final offensive play in Super Bowl).
3.) Support each other (remember when Irwin had that big game? They were all so happy for that dude)
4.) Let Joe decide. No calling out when they are open. Joe will get them the ball when that is what the defense dictates. He doesn't play favorites.
5.) Blocking (as you mentioned) I will never forget the play where Chase caught up to Mixon in Detroit and (hilariously) blocked the same guy twice. The second block putting him on his ass.
6.) Confidence. Sure, all WRs have it, right? Or is it sometimes a false bravado? These guys know they can beat you and aren't afraid of anyone.
7.) I wasn't sure what to call this one, but I am going to go with: "Youthful Energy". They bring so much energy, fun, and passion to the game. It carries over to the entire team.
Accountability- to the team, to each other and to themselves. Chase or Tee (don't remember which) said it the other day. They hold each other accountable in everything they do. No slacking, or they get called out. And he said that includes the whole room, rookies and veterans alike.
