You forgot the "Immaculate reception." It wins because there's a picture of Harris with his hands around the ball while it's touching the ground, not to mention it hit off his teammate Frenchy Fuqua (which at the time would have made it a dead ball) first.

Satan's coming back?

That's essentially what I was getting at, i.e. if he did fairly well last year despite being overweight, undermotivated, and with a crappy offense, imagine what he'll be like this year when he's lighter, more motivated, and has a better offense around him. That's why I said in my first post that he'll be a top-10 RB (again) this year.

Too bad Theodore didn't dump Cloutier's daughter after her father solicited a 14-year old prostitute and peed on her, which is INFINITELY more embarrassing than cheating on a spouse, a well-known French thing to do. Sometimes I wish celebrities would all just die.

Fair enough. I still don't think he was over-used compared to other backs and I agree that his YPC were low, but that had a lot to do with his weight and the offense. I think he's excited by what Fairchild is doing and he came into camp lighter and in great shape. Let's hope it means something on the field.

No one wanted to be in Buffalo about midway through last year. A lot of that had to do with the coaching staff. And as for Willis looking slow, again it's because he played too heavy and because of that fool of a S&C coach Mularkey hired (Brad Roll). And as for your contention about sharing carries, Willis averaged 20.3 carries a game. Hardly a ton of carries. The range for RB's in the top-10 last year was 17.5-24 carries a game with ~20 being the average. And WRT pass-catching skills, being that he was removed on 3rd downs and wasn't INVOLVED by Mularkey in the passing game, it's kind of hard to SHOW your skills.

So because Willis got most of the carries and was 10th in rushing last year, it means nothing? Yeah, okay.

Willis was 10th in the NFL in rushing last year with that offense, and being overweight. Enough said.

The firing of Brad "Jelly" Roll will have a big impact on the conditioning level of the team as a whole and the running game in particular, as will Willis coming in about 10+# lighter. And Anthony Thomas can be an effective backup RB. I also think that a real OC will do wonders.

It will be a top-10 rushing attack when all is said and done.

Cieslak won't get cut. Between him Royal, Everett, and Neufeld, Cieslak is pretty much a lock. He seems like a Marv kind of player, which also helps him, along with seemingly doing well and impressing the coaches. As for Everett, he was a JUCO transfer to Miami in 2003, and sat behind The Solja. As a full-time starter in 2004, with Brock Berlin as his QB (yech!), he caught 23 passes for 310 yards and had 84 knockdown blocks. He also only missed 1 game that year and in his entire time at UM. Time will tell if he's a nobody or not, but I think there's enough there to warrant sticking with him.

"I'm like a bird." She is smoking, I agree. A little bigger chest and she'd be unbelievable! And I like both songs. Probably because of her.

The assessment of Parrish based nostly on his size, right?

Why? Cieslak, while a nice story, isn't near the athlete Everett is, nor did he come from a big-time program like Everett did. And I haven't seen anything in Everett's past to make me think he won't give as much of an effort as Cieslak, especially being a former 3rd round pick who is coming-off knee surgery and dealing with a regime that didn't draft him. Maybe it's the knee injury, and what appear to be a potential problem with being injury-prone, which is a valid concern.

Time will tell if Moulds' absence will be a factor. With bigger guys like Wilson and Nance possibly ready to fill his role, we'll have to wait and see.

No I don't, which is why I think bf screwed-up there. The link was taken down quickly after that.

JP said he's used to being coached "hard," which means "well." Basically he's saying the coaching last year sucked.

Maybe. But didn't a link to a picture by crayonz have "bfinindiana" in it?

No need. It's silly enough.

Maybe crayonz is hogboy? Anyone remember him?

Same here. And Levy said that Royal was the best blocker in the NFL, at least as a TE.

Ieatcrayonz definitely did NOT drink the Kool-Aid. Although he may have jumped the shark. I don't know.

The defense crapped their pants as well. It was also Belichick's first year with the team and they had a lot of cap issues. Bledsoe can be effective, but he's at the point where in big game situations, he'll hurt you more than help you. The point production with Martz and without was little different. And Fairchild doesn't coach defense.

Hopefully they take the extra money and sign some guys long-term, and use any remaining money as likely to be earned incentives that will never be reached, so they can get a cap credit for next year.

LOL! You beat me to it.
