Just the nature of the skill positions. You out there only the island for everybody to see. Not on the trenches. All eyes on me mindset develops.

Makes sense because some DB’s have the same mindset. Revis and Sherman come to mind.

Rez was a DB himself. He's got a bit of swag.

Ian Rapaport used the word "set back" too many times in that clip for my taste.

Hopefully, Mike is 100% by the start of TC.

We cannot compete offensively without a legit WR.

Still need a Z and slot receiver, but this is a start.

100% healed would be nice but I'm not counting on it. In fact, I'm still disappointed in can't call Mike. He could have made the difference last year if he'd been a team player. I hope he comes back strong with his head on straight but I'm not counting out more Diva moves from him before he is finished.

I still can't believe that we still paid him last year because he missed this much time after he refused proper medical services. They need to consider a contract addendum for stupid stuff. Lol

Given the storm clouds around Kamara, and the fact that Michael Thomas' perceived value is pretty low based on his long absence ... this would be a horrible time to trade him.
