Pat came into the league looking like he had all the answers to the test.
I’ve never seen a player make everything look so easy. He had such an extreme level of confidence and everything looked so damn smooth.
He never dropped his eyes and he just had this uncanny way of feeling the pass rush and navigating the pocket while keeping his eyes downfield the whole time.
Somehow he’s lost that. He drops his eyes, he looks sped up, scared at times even. That effortlessness and natural moxie has been missing for awhile.
Can he get it back? Of course. But I sure hope he’s attacking this offseason like he never has before. It’s not going to come back without a renewed work ethic and focus.
