I'm sure everyone will jump on him for "trashing" the fans/franchise, but saying players become a target for fan hatred because they are put in position to fail isn't exactly wrong. Fans are dumb lunatic assholes. Go look at any player's twitter feed and imagine dealing with that much vitriol directed at you for trying to do your job.

That comes with the territory of being a millionaire professional athlete in the 21st century. If Nelson doesn't want the scrutiny he can go get a job at CVS.
Also if Nelson thought that KC fans were tough, he hasn't seen anything yet.
Wait until he sees how Steelers Nation reacts when he blows games with his garbage play, his momentum killing penalties, etc.
