You need to be out there after hours, working your tail off to be great and I guess that may be something that isn't stressed by position coaches? :confused-

I'd find it hard to believe there is a coach in the NFL that doesn't stress those types of things. At some point though the responsibility falls to the player to take the reins and do what he needs to do. Watching film, extra work in the weight room, whatever. The coaches can't hold the players' hands 24/7.
