Borges is a good writer.
He ignores the fact that lack of character has ruined his career, despite his talent.
He also ignores the fact that recognizing "football character" has caused the Patriots to be enormously successful while teams with better "talent" have faltered.
Did corey dillon lack character? They probed his psyche and found a man with tremendous pride and drive who wanted to be left alone and not be a leader.
Sure, he had anger and frustration issues, but hejust wanted to dohis job and succeed and his "character" was just what we needed.
Is Moss's character in question? Absolutely! But he is the exception, not the rule. Other teams pick up 5 or 6 players every year with questionable drive, focus etc.
Moss is motivated to play for us. He'll play under our rules and BB is motivated to see him succeed. All Moss has to do is run the plays and be a teammate.
Bitter Borges is grasping at straws on his little internet site to find a chink in the Patriots armor.
Of course you could probably find articles where Borges criticizes the Pats for not acquiring Moss, but what does it matter?
He's just a little man with an ever decreasing audience wondering where it all went wrong.
