""Because the guy has passion on the field??? He somehow will be incapable of being fine after football?!! Really? Wow!""
No, I do not draw my conclusion from the fact that he has "passion on the field." It has more to do with the attitude he communicates every time he opens his mouth. The guy is a jerk, and yeah, a punk. Also, how do you even claim that he has more or less passion than anyone else? Because he behaves poorly and foolishly on the field when things don't go his way often resulting in penalties that hurt the team? Who needs that kind of passion? I dont get the Peters apologists, he brings terrible character to the team, and so far his play has been terrible.
go rams.
How can someone claim he has more passion than anyone else?
McVay has stated numerous times regarding Peters that he LOVES football. That's passion! That's why McVay wanted him.
McVay has also said that a love for football is one of the key ingredients of character that he's looking for. When people were saying the Rams were adding players with bad character, McVay was saying the opposite.
He called Suh and Peters players that add good character to the team because what he's looking for primarily is players that love football and want to grow. Personality quarks isn't as big a deal.
So no, he doesn't bring terrible character to the team; at least not the type of terrible character that Snead and McVay feel is important.
