"For a guy who didn't catch a pass Sunday, Plaxico Burress had one of the greatest days of his career - with the media, that is.

Burress has been described as aloof, sullen, noncommunicative and living in his own world. He has worked hard to earn those tags. Now, give the man credit. After playing the role of mannequin in the Jets' 32-3 victory over Jacksonville, Burress spoon fed enough evidence to media seals allowing them to report, to friend and foe alike, that he is showing signs of turning over a new leaf.

His decision to stay positive about Mark Sanchez not throwing the ball to him has been interpreted as a powerful statement. After watching Burress' locker room session, how can anyone think differently? Okay, so considering the flap he caused in a recent magazine article, and other post-jail interviews, this is a grand leap of faith. At least Sunday he wasn't trashing Tom Coughlin or Eli Manning. He was commenting on what took place on a football field."
