Maybe it's just me but I was sort of put off by some of the comments he made in the Relentless episode about the Penn State game. I don't remember verbatim, but I remember him sitting in the hotel room essentially telling the young WRs not to listen to the coaches and to not let the coaches and team mentality get in the way of trying to highlight yourself in a big game.
Maybe someone can find me the actual dialogue.
Believe you have a wrong take from his comments. I took his meaning to be players have to step up when you are on the big stage, make big plays to win big games.
