Kubiak’s job could hinge on 2nd half

There you have why this team can not ralley from a deficit

There you have why this defense cant make a game changing 3 and out

There you have why this team cannot seem to force turnovers

There you have why this team looks a pitiful mess and no one on the team seems to care

There you have why a qb has thrown 4 int in a single game and he's still in the game

WE HAVE NO LEADERS ON THIS TEAM. TALENT BUT NO LEADERS. NOBODY WILLING TO MOTIVATE THE TEAM.

I think "vocal" leaders and that term is simply overrated. Actions are what speak louder than words. Put me on the team, and I can be rah, rah, but if you suck, then who will listen? I have heard AJ has spoken up more, as has Demeco and Dunta. Vocal leaders is BS. Sure, Ray Lewis is a vocal leader, but he is a bad ass on the field. Bob sanders, vocal bad ass. We need a bad ass that can play and then back that up with words. It is not something that can be taught, it is within you. It might not be in Mario or AJ to as our best players to be vocal. That is overrated. We need guys who can make plays, not just run their mouth. NFl players should not need a teammate to get on their ass to be motivated. Simply put, the team needs more playmakers on defense.
