transitions are tough to call, in additon to the NO example w/Brees & Peyton, there was last year's Dallas example w/Wade P. & Garret taking over. There are a lot of parallels to dallas last year & us this year, old legend coach leaves, new o-coordinator who's a former qb. I'd be thrilled if we have that kind of success in year 1.

It is obviously more than possible as we've seen nfl teams adjust quickly & positively to new coaches & systems, however the opposite is true as well. I feel good about the O, but I'm actually worried about the D this year. No major improvements were made on that side of the ball, some crucial players are getting older & they've got to deal w/last year's injuries to Rogers & McIntosh.

Despite Blache being the in house guy, it's still a transition for everybody w/him as the head guy, and we don't know that he's nearly as good as GW,who did an incredible job IMO w/what he had.
