It seems like he is making excuses. I heard the whole interview and kept saying he just wanted to play. He is the one that said he talked to the coaches and said he would be better out of the 3-4 scheme and they said OK. He also stepped aside and let someone else take his starting position. If you really just wanted to play you would have never stepped aside.I think he is just trying to save face to bad for both sides.

I am guessing that most everyone here that reads that will feel the same, that is a guy who just doesn't get it. I would add that he almost made it sound like he was calling on Dan Snyder to intervene:

Hopefully, what Mr. Snyder wants is for AH to do what the coaches tell him to do.

I can't tell by the article if upstairs refers to Shanahan or Snyder, but to me, the whole point is that at some point he should have "gotten it"

That article nearly made me sick
