At what point is the above comment he made about himself? How is that different than the attention that Lynch, Wilson, Sherman, Thomas garner with their comments. Also, how did he hurt his team on the field? A 15 yard penalty? Thomas hit a guy out of bounds to keep a drive going. That was emotional. He hurt his team.
He is the leader of the WR corp. He speaks for them. Thomas and Kam speak for the defense. Sherman just talks. Simple. And nothing he has said is "controversial."
There is a lot of pettiness on the board this week. Understandable. Seems easier to accept our players for who they are collectively instead of judging them individually. You will find the arguments have less merit.
Doug's constant battles with the media are about himself, not the team.
If you're going to equate Thomas's late hit with Doug's shitting out a football unsportsmanlike, we're just on different wave lengths. I believe Doug has plenty of room to grow as both a player and more importantly, a leader.
Difference of interpretation.
