The Curious Case of Robbie Anderson

 

     I wonder what it takes for an NFL coach to kick his own player out of a game and off the sideline for his team. I've heard of players getting benched, or having their snaps cut back, but outside of Antonio Brown, I've never heard of a player being given the boot by his own head coach.

    Enter Robbie Anderson


    I can think of a lot of things that could be getting under Robbie's skin to make him act this way. He had to start his career with the Jets, and then moved to Carolina so he's been stuck in football hell for most of his professional career. His stats have never been eye popping, despite being the type of player that's way more talented than he's been given credit for. And he's never really had a true quarterback throwing him the rock.

    While all of these things are true, he's still not good enough to go full TO or Randy Moss on his teammates and coaches. Hell, he's not even good enough to go mid-level Antonio Brown (never go high-level AB, no matter who you are). If you don't want to play for the Panthers anymore then go out and pick a fight with a cornerback and get ejected; you're playing the Rams, I'm sure Jalen Ramsey would be happy to oblige.

    Anderson could've been such a good player in the NFL. He was once a fantasy sleeper, and did wonders for me as a late season pick-up; he was doing it on the Jets too. Maybe he could've been a more level-headed type of player if he had gone to a good franchise, as opposed to the Panthers. Either way, you have to imagine he's costing himself a lot of money with what he's doing right now.

    But seriously, what did he say that was that bad?
