love this kid, and the article raises a very good point. the proof of his change will be in the pudding come the off-season when he's got time on his hands and money to burn. I'm really, REALLY hoping he's put his past behind him, because he could be an All-Timer if he keeps his head on straight!

Really getting tired of articles stating how he can fail.. And such.. Let the man live his life.. If he messes up, then we deal with it then.. Im not gonna punish him for things he might do.. Because any player might do anything..

Far and away the best thing Josh Weinfuss has written during his tenure covering the Cardinals IMO. That's informative and inspring journalism right there.

It's part of the narrative Gee and his backstory and overcoming it is what makes his story so interesting.

If there wasn't that narrative about Tyrann he wouldn't be on our team right now, he would have been picked in the late first round.

Did the Cardinals give Patrick Peterson's parents season tickets and round trip flights to all of the games?

Considering what they've done for this team, they sure deserve it.

That was our GM who said that. He gets it. Credit to Kiem as he has deftly handled this since making the pick.

I love HB and loved when we drafted him. Smart risk.

But it will take some time till im comfortable and not expecting the other shoe drop at some point. Hell if his parents feel that way so should I.

Sounds like he is making every effort and Im pulling for him. But what took 6 months to blow up will take longer to rebuild.

Love him as a player. Glad to hear he is working on the personal side just as hard.

His first off season will be the real test. This is when most players find trouble. Hopefully some of his teammates will keep a close eye on him and give him some guidance. Maybe Fitz can take him on one of his expeditions to a foreign country and let him see first hand how hard some people really have it.

I just do not see this young man straying off the good path to stardom. Peterson is obviously a great influence. Going to Florida was a great move and his press coverage has been good will help. Great pick. Cannot recall but I do not think I was for taking him when we did.
