Anyone else notice how Wallace's attitude has improved this year? He seems much more positive and excited about the team and his role in it than he did last year.

Last year he always seemed to have a puss on his face in interviews, but this year he seems much more upbeat. It's also showing on the field as he is running with a purpose and attacking the ball, something he really struggled with last year.

17 million has a way of changing attitudes lol. I think he has been a better teammate and player this year also. Still not a fan of him for what he makes a year esp considering he is not a top 10 receiver but he seems to be a much better team player and has made some tough plays

Yea the money is crazy but that's what FA is... Punishment for the pocket cause u dont draft well... But he is playing much better and his attitude is definitely more upbeat, I think this has to do a lot with Lazors system and how he's used, wallace seems to like it.

The money we knew would be giant this year, but if he keeps playing this way, year 3,4 will be easier to accept.
 
I'm warming up to him as a person - he's handling himself better than last year. He's trying harder on the field. Good for him. Good for us :)
 
Wallace detractors never seem to mention how our disasterous oline last year affected his production. This year is much different. Yeah he has a better attitude because his QB has time to let his routes develop, he has a running game to balance the passing game and he also has a new coordinator who knows how to get him involved in the offense. I expect him to continue to improve his numbers and his chemistry with THill and be a top 10 WR.
 
IM still sure that Pitt is glad that they ended up keeping Brown of the two since Wallace would not accept the contract.
34 receptions 511 yards tds in 5 games. . Although keeping them both would have been awesome for them.
 
Yes, I have noticed. Good to see also.

I think Lazor getting him more involved, and creating more opportunities for receptions really helps. Additionally he also seems to be fighting for the ball more this year and is playing more physical.
 
You create detractors when you say crap like you could have easily broke the NFL record for td receptions when the most tds you ever had in your nfl career was 10.

With a speedy WR like Wallace, Miami should be scoring a lot more points than they have been. Tannehill better start making those deep throws.
 
The thing I have noticed more than anything is how much passion and fire he is bringing to his play. I've never seen him fight for yards or contact but he is not shying away this year and it's a great thing to see. It should start making great things happen when everything begins to "click" for our O. I truly believe we are on the verge of something great....just hope we don't screw it up.

I'm hoping so as well. The potential is there, we've seen flashes of it in both preseason and this season so far. The offense has really clicked at times. IF they can just cut down on some of those mistakes (drops and occasional bad pass mainly) and stay healthy, get in more reps in the system, the sky is the limit. I'm not convinced we'll be seeing a deep ball aerial assault, but we don't need to - those type of opportunities should show up anyway here and there - but don't force it.
 
How much he is paid is somebody else's problem. I think he's much improved. I just wish we could hit him in stride more often.
 
I like the fact that he's not only playing better, but he's the top dawg and starting to act like one. That brings a lot of swagger to the unit and can make a defense have to respect you more, opening up avenues for the slot / short-yardage / running game to eat away at yards and move the chains.
