Plaxico Burress is one player who worries me. Towards the end of the season he was sulking and griping. With a young quarterback, the last thing you need is one of the recievers complaining and criticizing.

Yeah, but he was also a huge part of the Giants success early on in the season. He is a player that your going to need to watch all year long though, because he can either help the team, or hurt the team.

The Steelers didn't let him go for no reason. He has trouble focusing all the time and can take plays off if he doesn't thing he is getting enough touches. His attitude during the playoff game was not desireable. I'm not sure I like the fact that Burress and Shockey are doing their own thing and weren't working out with the team.

You'd like to think that a coach like Tom Coughlin could keep Plaxico in line. But if Bill Cowher couldn't -- there could be legitimate reason to worry.

That said, I think as long as Plaxico keeps getting plenty of balls thrown his way he'll keep his antics under control.

But if the Giants get blown out in some game and Eli only throws in Plaxico's direction two or three times in the whole game, look out because that could get ugly in a hurry.

Plaxico's attitude is much like TO's. And that could be a problem with a young QB.

It seems to be something with WRs in the NFL these days. There seems to be a rash of selfish, non-team players at the WR position

Wide reciever is the glamour position these days. Certain ones think they should get every pass thrown to them.
