Kap has had bad takes but this shows his complete lack of football knowledge.

What's going on with Caleb has nothing to do with work ethic. Basically he has used his athletic ability to get himself out of trouble and he could do this in college because he could be the most talented player. This doesn't translate well when other players are also athletically gifted.

You don't just roll out of bed and make the kinds of plays that Caleb has shown when he has shown those flashes. So to say he doesn't work hard is ridiculously dumb.

Caleb needs to be coached to understand he needs to play more on schedule and that he's not going to be able to out-talent his competition.

Bad take by Kap.

Kaplan has been known to throw stuff out there for clicks, views, etc. "Shock radio". Would be curious to get some corroboration on that. It was polar opposite that early in the season as that other guy mentions before Kaplan.
There's been some alluding to it elsewhere - and truthfully this has to fall at the feet of Poles because they gave him Tyson Bagent as his backup for not giving him a vet leader who's done it before.

Without even watching the video, there's no way Caleb could call protections and audibles from day 1 like he did without being a hard worker.

Also, playing an entire season while taking the beating he did shows that he also takes care of his body.

FAKE NEWS.

i think what he is saying(i could be mistaken) is that caleb progressively slowed the work ethic down as the season tanked worse and worse. no clue if it is true, just clarifying what i think the claim is

cant say it would be surprising if true, i think most here can understand putting in less effort as things get more gloomy at work

The entire segment was an Eberflus teardown.

Kaplan just out here casually lumping Caleb in the same discussion as Kwane Brown? Lol. That's basically the mark of death.

Let's hope this isn't accurate. My god.

Not only doesn't work hard, but he said he was unfocused.

Does he actually watch the games?

Kwame Brown????? Really Kap????

I feel dumber for listening now. Caleb isn't working hard and unfocused, like Kwame Brown. Then tells stories about Kwame's immaturity.

Immensely talented ......blah blah blah........

david kaplan is a clown. Who cares what he says.

The idiot also said that the jets would be in the superbowl

He's trying to save face cause the moron said if caleb doesnt throw for 4500 yards and 35 tds as a rookie its a disappointing season.

I agree with this. A vet QB would have been a very good influence on him, someone like Flacco or even ( gulp) Tannehill. Bagent threw 2 passes all year, a veteran holding the clipboard giving him advice from experience would have been more valuable.
