Cunningham was averaging 39 defensive snaps per game before the suspension and was cut down to an average of 18 per game after, while Bolden was averaging 14.4 offensive snaps per game before the suspension and 3.5 after. Maybe there was an element of conditioning in play, but nonetheless, Belichick’s message was clear from this perspective: Cunningham and Bolden let the team down, and they’ll have to earn Belichick’s trust back in 2013.
