What tears us apart is when players turn that personality and attitude inward towards the organization.
BIG DIFFERENCE. Pete's never wavered on that, you can be yourself, you can have controversial opinions, you can act outwards..........but if you turn that inward on the team then you're gone, i.e. Percy, and now Sherman.
So it's not like this is a new thing with Pete and John, buy in................. or you're gone.
And that's true at any stop in the NFL. The irony is that Pete is probably 1000 times more lenient with guys in terms of freedom of expression than any other HC in the league.
I also personally think Marshawn crossed that line in 2015, which is a reason why they were not terribly sad to see him retire.
