Accountable part 2

“Everybody is going to have to be accountable. If you’re on the field, you have to give me 100 percent. Always. We have to weed out the bad seeds, point blank. If you can’t give me what I’m giving you on the field, I don’t need you on the field with me. I have no problem telling that guy I don’t need him on the field, and I have no problem going to tell Bill (Belichick) I don’t want him on the field. That’s how you win.
- ” Vince Wilfork, New England Patriots

Part of the New England Patriots formula of success is player leadership and players willing to hold their teammates accountable.  Wilfork makes his stance very clear that he doesn't care about skill level, potential, round you were drafted or contract amount.  If you're not playing with maximum effort, then he's going to call you out.

Do you have players who will hold their teammates accountable?
