Wow

Say what you want about Burns, but he clearly cares about the team and gives 100% every play. You don't have to be a great player to be a leader.

Wingo was a defensive leader and his position coach was forced out supposedly by House. It isn't shocking that he would hold ill will towards him for that.

Sad thing is that Wingo being a leader should have been the bigger person and not let it derail the defense. It wasn't the only reason clearly and was assuredly not the biggest issue, but using your personal beef with the DC to basically kill the harmony on the team would be the opposite of the #18's purpose.

I never really liked House to be fair, and I am glad they let him go, but this defense had major issues at all levels including player attitude and that is a major reason why they were historically bad.
