The Human Bullet
Jimmy Johnson said it best; "I am very consistent in the way I treat my players, I treat them all differently". "If a rookie falls asleep during film study, he just lost his job, but if it's Dan Marino who falls asleep, he gets a gental nudge"
Each player should be treated differently, as everyone has a different personality. As someone else said, certain players are motivated by fear. Mark Dixon is one of those guys. He has been self-depreciating since the day he joined the team.
As for closing the QB job, Brian had zero chance of playing better than Jay this season, as he needed to learn Norv's entire playbook. We would of had to scale back the playbook for Brian, thus making this offense a copy cat of last years "Ray Lucas offense" which wasn't getting it done.
So why open a competition?
