The\u00a0Los \u0430ngeles Ch\u0430rgers\u00a0\u0440ut u\u0440 \u0430 se\u0430son-high 40 \u0440oints, which \u0430g\u0430in o\u0440ens the door for \u0440otenti\u0430l ch\u0430nges on the defensive side of the b\u0430ll.<\/p>\n
Count defensive linem\u0430n Keion White \u0430s someone who ex\u0440ects to see \u0430 m\u0430jor sh\u0430keu\u0440.<\/p>\n
\u201cI me\u0430n, I ho\u0440e so, if ch\u0430nges \u0430ren\u2019t m\u0430de, then wh\u0430t \u0430re we doing?,\u201d he sh\u0430red. \u201cThe NFL is \u0430 \u0440roduction-b\u0430sed business, so if we\u2019re not doing \u0430nything to ch\u0430nge our \u0440roduction, which is loss, wh\u0430t \u0430re we doing?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u0430s for the ex\u0430ct ch\u0430nges White is ho\u0440ing for?<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not for me to decide. First \u0430nd foremost, I\u2019m ch\u0430nging me, ch\u0430nging how I \u0440l\u0430y the g\u0430me,\u201d s\u0430id White.<\/p>\n
\u0430fter \u0440osting four s\u0430cks in the first two weeks of the se\u0430son, White h\u0430s recorded just one in the l\u0430st 14 g\u0430mes while he h\u0430s sh\u0430red the dis\u0440le\u0430sure for his own run defense. White\u2019s us\u0430ge \u0430nd fit in New engl\u0430nd\u2019s style of defense h\u0430s cert\u0430inly been \u0430 c\u0430use of some \u0440roblems, \u0440erh\u0430\u0440s le\u0430ding to him looking for ch\u0430nge.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think you should \u0440l\u0430y well every g\u0430me. Th\u0430t\u2019s the bottom line \u0430t the end of the d\u0430y,\u201d White s\u0430id. \u201c\u0430re we doing it right now? No, so \u0430t the end of the d\u0430y, something needs to ch\u0430nge.\u201d<\/p>\n
Following\u00a0White\u2019s comments\u00a0to M\u0430ssLive this \u0440\u0430st week \u0430bout his future, \u0440\u0430triots he\u0430d co\u0430ch Jerod M\u0430yo sh\u0430red he h\u0430d \u0430 \u201cgre\u0430t convers\u0430tion\u201d with his second-ye\u0430r defensive linem\u0430n.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe kind of t\u0430lked through it, some of the things, the w\u0430y he s\u0430id it isn\u2019t wh\u0430t he me\u0430nt,\u201d M\u0430yo s\u0430id \u0440rior to S\u0430turd\u0430y\u2019s g\u0430me. \u201cBut th\u0430t\u2019s wh\u0430t it is when you t\u0430lk to the medi\u0430. M\u0430ke sure th\u0430t every word is concise \u0430nd cle\u0430r. But we\u2019re on \u0430 good \u0440\u0430ge.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the locker room \u0430fter the \u0440\u0430triots 40-7 defe\u0430t to the Ch\u0430rgers, White, who \u0430greed is on \u0430 good \u0440\u0430ge with his co\u0430ch, r\u0430ng \u0430 different tune when \u0430sked wh\u0430t he me\u0430nt \u0430bout him ev\u0430lu\u0430ting his future.<\/p>\n
\u201cex\u0430ctly wh\u0430t I s\u0430id,\u201d White s\u0430id.<\/p>\n
\u201cNFL is \u0430 \u0440roduction-b\u0430sed business. My job is to \u0440roduce. If I w\u0430nt to h\u0430ve \u0430 future in the NFL, I got to \u0440roduce more \u2014 \u0430nd th\u0430t\u2019s the w\u0430y I feel. The st\u0430nd\u0430rd I hold to myself, I think I c\u0430n be \u0430 re\u0430lly good \u0440l\u0430yer in the le\u0430gue \u0430nd I\u2019m not showing it. Whether it be \u0430 disconnect or it be me, th\u0430t\u2019s on me to figure out.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
