Uhh, your reading comprehension is terrible. That was part of a larger sentence.

What it tells me is that the Jets were, to some extent, taken in by his supposed "love of football". Him being a gym rat, "loving" football, and generally being a nice kid blinded them, to some extent.

While its important to have a guy "eat, breathe, love" football, that's just step one in evaluating the guy. He could love football and have a chronic inability to decipher the defense. The love of football doesn't automatically mean that the game slows down for him, unfortunately.

I'd rather have an ahole who can find a receiver whilst being blitzed, then a nice kid who panics.
