  1. I am not at all impressed with Turk's play calling. He is predictable.

     

    However, with the addition of TO teams will no longer be able to stack the box to stop the run and double Lee Evans. The idea is that if teams stack the box, we can burn them with the pass. If a team doubles Lee up top, TO will be open underneath. If they double TO over the middle, there isnt a corner in the league that can run with Lee up top one on one. If a team sits in a nickle, there is no reason Marshawn should not be able to run all over a pass coverage formation.

     

    If Trent plays well, we should have one of the most high powered offenses in the league. My major concern is Turk Schonerts vanilla, predictable offense. Last year, he couldn't make a call from a cell phone.

     

    Im excited about TO's impact. Even if teams know our tendencies, they still have to play the game. With 2 pro bowl caliber wr's, a pro bowl caliber running back, and pro bowl LT, there is no doubt we have the personell.

    I think with the addition of TO and him opposite Lee, both will have good oppurtunities to get open and the extra attention that the two of them will get should free up other receivers/TEs (like Pettigrew :thumbsup: ) and will also help free up the run game for Beast Mode and Freddie. I'm excited for sure. I think we need to give Turk a chance though, last year wasn't great but let's see what happens with the added talent...

  2. Looks like we should have drafted Korrodi instead :thumbsup: He's #1.

     

    On a side note, I'm pretty disappointed in Group 1's effort. Group 2 really brought it today.

     

    Thanks for posting this 3 year old piece of non-linked garbage. Real helpful in putting this debate to bed. :thumbsup:

     

    ouch... Don't pull any punches... haha

    Is this from the Rookie Combine? Also, I haven't heard too much talk of his arm strength for some time actually...

  4. Here's another sh-- article from San Fran. Saw it on the front page. Here's a particularly idiotic quote "nobody ever thinks of Buffalo. Even when the Bills reached four straight Super Bowls in the early 1990s, it seemed an eternal surprise they had reached that point. Considering that the franchise dates to 1960, I'd go as far as to say they're the most bland franchise in pro football history." The writer goes on to say that the story of the Bills is a story of wasted talent in Kelly, Kemp, Smith, Thurman, etc. What a DI-K! Again, get over it San Fran, TO left like 5 years ago... idiots... :thumbsup:
