Why worry so much about what he said anyways? Who cares? Probably one of the most irritating things about sports media is the microanalysis of simple statements that players make.

I.M.O 7 solo tackles and 3.5 sacks isn't "really good"

I understand it's refreshing to not just hear the cookie cutter cliche each time, and not every 1st year rookie will be a J.J. Watt or CM3, but I.M.O. Datone has a distorted sense of reality.

Some people want us to keep Pickett, but I really think he was declining for the past two seasons and giving him another contract is a complete waste. I think most Packers fans are pretty disgusted with Raji - and would view his resigning as an insult to all of us. And Wilson is just a guy. He plays the run pretty well, but gets absolutely no push in the pass rush.

I'd rather we went with Jolly, Daniels, Boyd, Jones and two new players!

"I was able to really help out a lot on third down. "

I am not sure how anyone on defense can celebrate how they played on third down this season.

I can not find any challenges with that statement. Looked at the positives and clearly stated his commitment to take every aspect of his game to the next level in 2014. I did not read one excuse.

I would be worried if he stated:

"I am going to reward myself. I am going to check out the nightlife in Amsterdam for the off season."

I would have liked to see him get more opportunities. As it stands he was tied for 2nd in sacks with Sheldon Richardson for rookie interior type DL but only played like 5-10 snaps a game for the most part. He showed flashes of pass rush ability kind of like how Daniels did as a rookie the year before. Hopefully he can make a similar jump in his 2nd season because if he can our DL suddenly looks a whole lot more dangerous.
