Amazing instincts. I love that about him, but he's not making any plays this season. One has to wonder... why so?

This is the big leagues, you prep to be in the right spots and then let instincts take over... he isn't in the right spot ever. This is what coaches do with good players, put them in positions to succeed. You can't just show up, say hey I'm a fooseball player, and make all pro plays.

So did Telvin's inate talent and instinctive play just go away because he went out on a Friday night, because he got a contract, or because you need to make more bad lunch-meat jokes?  

Which is it? 

LOL

If you read his instincts are not in question, they never will be. He's playing as if he's unprepared. All you need to do is watch the games to see that. His payday came because of BIG PLAYS. He is a non factor in the run game and is out of position constantly in pass coverage. When was he ever good at either? Seriously when? lol it's a joke I even have to make that point. He's an instinctual football player, playmaker at heart, BUT you have to be in position to make plays... that comes from time and preparation. For a LB, lots of time and preparation. Understanding tendencies and capitalizing on them, that's what made Telvin special. Could money make a pro athlete relax a bit? Do I even have to answer that? 

Lemme guess, Telvin is playing bad because he is injured? Ah yes, the resident injury excuse man to the rescue.
