Default What's up with Rodney?

Am I imagining things or is Rodney making more uncharacteristic decisions out there with regard to personal fouls and confrontations with officials?

Overall he had a tremendous game last night, but I do think that something is up with him. Something is different. He has changed. These personal foul outbursts, and confrontations with officials and opposing coaches is the type behavior I would expect from a roid head, but he's obviously not on the juice. So what the hell is going on there?

Maybe it's just life in the fast lane but when it costs the team yardage, mmmmm, I wonder if speed is killing more than it should.

Boy, are you over reacting. He's the most fined player in the league, I believe. Rodney has never not delivered a hit when there was any question and has oftem been called for it.

His one late hit was bad and he got called for one near the sideline where the guy was still running and was in bounds.

The second was an awful call and Rodney was right to make sure that guy was stopped. The first was late, but that's what has always been the trade off with Rodney.

Always, since way before the Patriots.

its a good question. rodney is always giving questionable hits, but lately he seems to be one step behind, causing the hit to be too late and flagged. i guess it could be cause he lost a step, getting old, and maybe just incredibly fired up for the end of the year. hard to say

i agree, it's like he just wants to fight or something. the guy is mad at the end of every play. as if he's been wronged. guy's always been scrappy but not this bad. call me crazy but i dont think he's back next year. i think bellichik will have seen enough

Remember, he's also been hurt alot the last 2 years. At first glance I can see where you're coming from, but he's always been like this...we've just forgotten, since he hasn't been on the field alot since the 2004 season.

we are talking about one of the most bad ass players of all time
