Price is a proud and emotional player. But by now, he should know better than to shove an opponent in the mouth and get whistled for a personal foul. He's not a rookie; he's four years into his career. Veterans know you can't afford to make bonehead mistakes in big games, especially on the road. Winning players learn to minimize their mistakes and moderate their emotions.
It's clear the Bills haven't earned the respect of the NFL officials. They're still committing silly penalties. They're still one of the league's most undisciplined teams, and they're not getting the benefit of the doubt. Officials are human. They're more likely to reach for the flag if a team has a reputation.
Price has grown up some over the past year, but he's still too volatile for his own good. He exemplifies the Bills' immaturity and lack of discipline. He is known around the NFL as a trash-talker and a bad sport. They're still seething in San Francisco over the cheap shot he delivered at the end of the game last season.
