I always thought his love of the game would be the thing that would lead him to adapt. But it's just not in his DNA. He's in the wrong century.
Anyway, he's bound to be looking at another suspension, right?
Probably why Marv wanted Reuben Foster and now is holding Ross at fault for not getting him.
At this point, I would rather see Vinny Rey at Mike and Jordan Evans as the WILL. Nickel should be Evans and Vigil.
Burfict, I believe, has a serious drinking problem. That is a strong accusation, but since the beginning of the season, his weight seems to have fluctuated greatly in the wrong direction. That seems borderline impossible during a season, but he has done it. And his fragile mental state probably leads him to turn to alcohol to cope. He hasn't been near the player we thought this year after looking like the best player in the NFL in preseason.
He simply has blown his talent and can't control his emotions. He should be a backup and nothing more. Sad.
