[QUOTE="DrJacket, post: 155039, member: 913"] No, I think you have put your finger on an unsung ingredient from last year's team. Clearly, the culture of the team shifted between 2013 and 2014. We hear a lot about key players "buying in." And, of course there are a lot of ways to lead. Some of them are more subtle, as your story illustrates. One of the issues CPJ has been frustrated with has been the relative lack of internal (team) leadership during some seasons. In addition to the relative leadership vacuum of some years, we have also had some players whose NFL hopes affected their practice and training habits. And, at times, their game efforts. Last year, it would appear the guys sold out to the system. Good teams have player-led cultures that take up where the coaches leave off. This quality manifests in the weight room. It shows up with off-season route running and film study. In the locker room, our leaders last year willed us to not give up and to do the extra effort that resulted in the fumble caused or the first down gained. Something kicked in last year. One of the hopes is that we didn't lose that "something" with the players who finished eligibility. [/QUOTE]
