That’s where I think the truth of this lies. This indecision – and his demonstrated lack of consistency and responsibility for making and keeping his decision – say volumes to me about his lack of post-football maturity. All he really knows is playing football, and doing anything else is both kinda scary (“what if I’m not good at it?”) and lacks the adrenaline rush of the gridiron.

He wants to win and be the best, but he doesn’t seem emotionally prepared for life after pro football. He’s a coach’s kid and some part of him never grew up – but he can’t play forever. He wants to be Peter Pan at quarterback, and that ain’t gonna happen.
