Mental Errors

After watching a majority of the games in my region yesterday there was something that stood out to me in a majority of the games. MENTAL ERRORS! There were too many false starts, delay of games, and holding penalties. For these to be professional athletes, I felt that was unacceptable. I still stand by the fact that the lockout had a negative affect on teams and their cohesion. With that being said, the NFL is six games into their season and at some point teams need to get on the same page. Mental Errors can be detrimental to a team's momentum. A team can be driving down the field until suddenly they are plagued by two false starts and now they are moving backwards. Unacceptable! There is something to be said about self-control as a team. It's not always that teams are being "out-played" or "out-coached." Sometimes there are internal issues amongst a team. This week, the entire NFL needs to work on some of those issues.
