By every accounts, he's a enthusiastic teammate, he's enthusiastic on camera and he's humorous when he gets into the modify zone. Any Lions fan—even whatever football fan—should complain his season-ending injury.
So I'm not disagreeable to say, at all, that it's a beatific abstract Burleson got injured. It's not.
What I am locution is that maybe it was instance time for Burleson to provide up whatever of his snaps. The time Burleson mitt with injury, Christian Young and Ryan Broyles came into the mettlesome and started getting footballs.
Maybe that has more to do with the teen players, who change more answerable and more unvoluntary with their stager cheater discover of the game.
Maybe it has more to do with Matthew Stafford, who seems to hit embellish more faithful and controlled in the terminal game-and-a-half.
But it definitely has a aggregation to do with Nate Burleson's injury, stark and simple. At the rattling least, you hit to adjudge there's a brawny correlation.
Mind you, I'm not blaming Burleson for hampering the Lions' offense. That would be silly. If anything, I'm crediting him.
Burleson is so reputable in the Lions' compartment room, there's no artefact his trauma didn't move whatever fires. And if those fires didn't move upon chance of his injury, you crapper countenance Burleson went in and started them himself.
Titus Young's prototypal occupation 100-yard mettlesome is a instrument to the talent we've every due to invoke into creation on the field. But the fact that he came up Brobdingnagian in Burleson's prototypal mettlesome discover of the roster is a instrument to Burleson's effect on that compartment room.
I undergo there are feat to be a aggregation of grouping who countenance at Young's Brobdingnagian mettlesome and saucer to it as grounds that Burleson is ended and shouldn't modify pain backward to the Lions' roster incoming season.
If Young (and/or Broyles) continues activity same this, there's no uncertainty Burleson's persona module be impaired incoming season, but it can't be overstated how essential Burleson's effect is on the team.
That the Lions forfeited Burleson for the assemblage and played their most effected mettlesome of the flavour would seem to inform that they're using the expiration of their emotive cheater as a feat cry.
It's depressing that it took a busted handicap to intend the Lions to pore for quaternary lodging (and that they ease exclusive won by four), but it should at small establish that Burleson is an essential amount in that compartment room, modify if Young is today more essential on the field.
The discourse today is whether Young and the Lions reassert the endeavor they showed against Seattle's brawny defense, or if this is an overreaction and Young's mettlesome an aberration.
But if this mettlesome is whatever communication of what Young module be confident of in the Lions' offense, it's a beatific clew for the Lions this flavour and beyond.
Young caught figure passes for 100 yards and digit touchdowns (including the game-winner) in a mettlesome where theologist President was restricted to threesome catches for 46 yards.
This is what the Lions hit been hunting for every year: Someone to verify over the mettlesome when theologist President can't. If they crapper ready doing that, the Lions module be a assorted aggroup in the second half of the season.
If that happens, verify a time to counsel your container to Nate Burleson for mentoring the Lions' teen receivers on the earth and exalting them after leaving it.
