Not exactly sure what was wrong, and as I said before, sure hope he gets it right. Just significantly less confident him him coming into 2016 than I was 2015. Tempering expectations quite a bit.
He looked like an entirely different back last year. I'm hoping it was injury related. I'm a big Hill guy, but even I will admit I'm not nearly as confident in him this year. In the end I do think he's better than what we saw last year, but probably not the All-Pro Corey 2.0 that many thought he'd be.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
