team’s young players are expected to burst to the fore in 2006. The

team will undoubtedly face numerous growing pains but head coach Mike

Mularkey has full support from new GM Marv Levy. The team will be

built upon character players and should be interesting to watch next

The future of the franchise may depend on it.’
