Re: SI: Training Camp Visit by Don Banks

I liked seeing that people outside of the organization and outside of the local media can see how hard Campbell has been working. Hopefully he will live up to or even surpass expectations this season.

One thing on the news this morning that made me smile was ARE talking about how hard Campbell has been working on the little things that will make the entire offense run smoother on the field. He said that JC has worked on his pronunciation because he used to have such a thick Southern accent that people often misunderstood him in the huddle.
For example, ARE said that one of their plays uses the word "falcon" in it but when Campbell used to say it it sounded more like "balco" (a bad omen maybe?). Now JC is pronouncing it correctly and everyone can get on the same page much faster.
I would think that this is extremely important considering we will be starting at least one new O-lineman who may have gotten confused last year by his accent.
