Pressure makes diamonds: Baker’s biggest critic may be his biggest motivator. Himself.

Miami Dolphins 6th-year middle linebacker Jermone Baker is not new to the art of ominous, and cryptic tweeting. Half of what he puts out there gets misinterpreted, but this time I think it’s safe to say this was being straight up with it. He expressed dissatisfaction with his overall play last year and vowed to turn it around.

I let y'all down last year. This year I will not.

From recent memory and overall eye test, I didn’t think he was bad at all during any parts of the season.
