It also has plenty to do with Berry the player being here and building a rapport with his teammates; many of whom are new to this system. We will be playing much different football in our secondary without Smith. He allowed us to do some unique things that an incredibly physical corner allows you to do. We don't have that so things are going to have to be done a little differently. All that will be determined by how the parts fit together and how they can interact together.
But we won't know any of that because a key cog in the secondary won't get his ass into camp so we can find out. So hey, I guess we'll just find out when the bullets start flying in September, eh? Lots of margin for error in a 16 game season; no worries, EB...

again, you're articulating things which have no reality to anyone actually on the football team...
i'd wager a lot of money that not a single player disagrees, much less cares, with Berry's choice...nor are they worried about his status as a 'leader'...Berry's proven it the only place that matters - on the field
but anyways, we don't have to speculate about what the players might think..we're just talking about your ginned up definition of what a leader is in the nfl...which pertains to nothing
