Also... again, it's not even like he said he doesn't watch film, just that he doesn't enjoy it. I know some football players are film junkies, just like some people are that way with certain aspects of any job. But there is no job out there that you have to enjoy doing the "worst" part of the job to be great at the job. It would be like not wanting to have Allen Iverson on your team because he doesn't like practice. (and no, before someone jumps on me for it, I'm not trying to say T-Mac is going to be a 1st ballot HOF legend like Iverson, just pointing out that you can be great and still not enjoy the tedious parts of the game/job) -
I'd only find a problem if that video was current or a recent question was asked about film watching in the NFL and his answer was " Nah, braaH ". Quiet honestly if a player doesn't watch film in during the off hours, that's not a problem to me. The fact is modern NFL team spend hours each working day in with their position coaches going over hours and hours of film. When the players union got rid of contact and pads, it was replaced by workouts/lifting and hours of film study. A normal NFL day is around 8-10 depending on many factors, like health status. They spent dang near 6 hours in a room watching film and going over techniques, mistakes, and game plans etc. Personally Id rather hit one another, but Im old school and have no place among the youth mindset... Balance is too far over..... -
Oh 100%, it's hard to play that position without being it a little bit these days. But there is a difference in the type of diva who thinks they're the best and having swagger/confidence and the type of diva that is all about themselves and not the team first. Players don't turn down NIL money, it's near unheard of. So for a player to flat out tell boosters that he has enough NIL money coming in and they should use it to keep other players from transferring so we could put a better team on the field, it just says so much about his character. And if you think a player who does THAT, is then going to have an attitude problem because he isn't a film junkie who loves to study and thus will end up hurting the team's ability to win, then you're just fooling yourself because he's not the guy you want. I've said it too many times... don't want to draft him, totally fine by me. But use legitimate and real reasons for not wanting him and/or just preferring someone else over him. This video isn't that, and if you're using it as a reason to not want him, then you can't say I'm the one with an agenda when talking about T-Mac, because then you do too, just the polar opposite.
