If there is one thing I have intuited about Patrick Peterson it is that pretty much everything he does is carefully calculated.
When he was a rookie, I like many of you, fell in love with Peterson. He was instantly the most electric punt returner on the planet. He was lightning in a bottle. The one frustration was that he was too handsy in press coverage and was drawing too many flags.
In year two, everything changed. Peterson had come to the conclusion that punt returning was no longer for him. Instead he focused on this cover techniques and he improved so quickly that he made the Pro Bowl, this time as a CB.
