Right, fans had no idea Peters might take it personally when they start calling him a thug, a jerk, and flood his social media with comments blaming him for disrespecting Vegas shooting victims. They had no idea he'd react when they start trolling him after he gave up a TD especially after that week. You expect these kinds of things from your worst players. You don't expect sports fans to go after their own BEST players. If you walk into a bar and poke a hot tempered guy repeatedly, don't act surprised when you get punched in the face.
Peters deserves blame and he's gotten plenty. Dorsey deserves blame and he's gotten plenty. Few here have suggested otherwise. What I see are plenty of people profusely defending fans as if they did nothing wrong. There are a subset of fans who decided to troll one of our best players during a winning streak. They chose social activism over winning. You can excuse that all you want. I as a fan ****ing hate it.

did Peters even hear the fans? I doubt he did. he probably heard something like a cacaphonous hum.
and fans are fickle. they can do no wrong (except for throwing batteries)
