Yeah, Belichick broomed an uber-athletic freak, in the middle of what would end up being a SB-winning season because he didn't give good effort on "1 play". That's it!
Jaime Collins summary:
-- stunningly awesome athlete. Does things no one else can do.
-- inconsistent effort.
-- free-lancer. Does not play with discipline or structure. Values sacks/stats more than working within the framework of the defense.
-- does not possess elite instincts. Will go to the wrong gap, overrun plays, etc.
THAT is why BB broomed him. And it was stunning to the team and the defense. The locker room was in complete shock. But there's nothing that drives BB more crazy than not knowing what he will get from a guy. Even if you're not as good, if you're consistent he can work around it, compensate for it, etc. If you're just inconsistent, then you just gotta pray, and that drives him nuts.
