    - Norman played well, but I don't think he was the catalyst for the tunraround. The Bills got more aggressive on defense.

     

    Disagree.  Norman's play seemed to be the spark that woke them up.   The D line played better and seemed to play faster after his recovery (subbing out Klein for Dodson didn't hurt either)...

    His heart

     

    Yes, yes, yes.

     

    The success or failure of the draft--particularly among high picks, where teams get intoxicated by potential--always seems to hinge on this aspect, which is so hard to judge from looking at tape, measurements, analytics, etc.   

     

    Josh's progress has taken a village of coaches, teammates, family and who knows how many other people.   But at its core has been his dedication to putting in the hard work necessary to transform himself.   And then never be satisfied with were he's at.   Or letting obstacles get in his way.    Or being reluctant to reach out to others for help.    And on and on.

     

    You see this same quality in so many great players.    And the lack of it in so many, many more, who threw away their gifts (Marcell Dareus, Mike Williams, John McCargo, et al)...

    Here's one from Cover1. Do you see where it breaks down?

     

     

     

    Epenesa screwed the pooch on that play as well, but chalk that up to inexperience.   I have no idea what Edmunds was doing...

    Saw something almost as cringe-worthy at Niagara Falls once.   

     

    A couple were having wedding pictures taken on Goat Island.  For one shot, the photographer had them sit on a tree limb hanging out over the rapids.  In their gown and tux, they're scooching around on the damn thing and all I could think about was how short a marriage they'd have, just for a damn picture...
