The only one who should be apologizing is the writer of the article who turned a moment of loss into a contract dispute, not the people to reacted harshly to the information we were given.

If this was training camp, I do believe Clinton-Dix would be in attendance, but even if not, I wouldn't hold it against him. Judging from his tweets, I believe he's taking this loss hard.

Nevertheless, it’s still a good life lesson not to jump to judgment… especially because you never know whether or not you’re getting the full story.

I cannot stress this enough. Writers more times than not are not about delivering us the facts. They are more about delivering part of the facts, with their (sometimes) agenda or opinion slant to get us to read it.

I am often times accused of being a fence rider because I don't quickly deliver a "hot take" decisive side on things. I hate being wrong, I mean, unhealthy hate to being wrong. At least, that's how it looks to people. The fact is ... I desire to ... no, I need to be informed, fully, and have all the pieces so I can build my opinion.

Remember Davante Adams having a crap year? The dude was playing on one leg. He should have sat down few games. He was trying to tough it out for his team that lost it's WR1 and instead looked like a shit WR.

Anyhow, I've rambled way too much already here. I suppose this and everything can be summed up that the ole saying "devil is in the details".

Also, it's not like no defensive backs have played well under Dom Capers. His coaching and scheme are obviously a factor, but I don't expect that much difference, unless the Packers have a crazy good pass rush.

Also the ridiculous amount of communication issues that went on at all levels. Haha has a pro bowl level season under his belt already so it's not like it would be a surprise to see him excel in a decent scheme

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.
Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst
