Not saying Rock should be cut, but as fans we tend to throw this "leader" term around quite a bit, and I don't know how it can be substantiated.

Well I don't think his coach's and teammates are in the business of throwing around words like "team leader" if they are not legit. Other than that and the obvious what you see on the field and the side lines, what more proof would you really need?

If it comes from what the coaches and teammates say, fine. I can't say that I've read that anywhere. I still think the term is a bit hokey. This team has been full of "leaders" for years, with as often as I hear it. Doesn't seem to help us escape from mediocrity though.

I'm not sure what's so obvious about him, really. Again, I'm not saying cut him or anything. He's just been one of those guys who's solid, but nothing really special.
