I would not go so far as calling Boldin's actions on the sideline during yesterday's NFC Championship game theatrics. He was not pulling a TO "throw me the ball more" theatrics. He was pissed because he was not on the field at the end of the game(at least that is what is being reported here in AZ). The guy is an absolute beast after the catch. He plays WR like a RB on every play. I think it is ridiculous calling him malcontent over his actions on the sideline yesterday, he simply wanted to be on the field. Granted, he wants a contract which he will likely get in the off-season. He was told by the team in the pre-season when this first came up that they would sit down together after the season and discuss his contract.
Back on point though, I love watching the guy play, but I would not give up what the Chiefs would likely have to in order to land Boldin. He gives 100% on every play he is out there, but the way he plays leads to him continually getting injured, both minor and more significant in nature. I believe he was on the injury report almost every week this season.
