On whether he saw any surprises upon reviewing the 2008 season:
“There were a couple of things to look at. Number one, where we got stopped in our offensive thrust to try and get the ball in the end zone was really from the plus-50 to the plus-20. That is where we ended a lot of drives. We have been taking a detailed look at that. There are some answers there and that is what we are trying to address as we come into our mini-camps, training camps--as we start experimenting with some new ideas. Our overall schemes are going to stay the same, but it is how we get the ball into the red zone and then be able to score from the red zone--those are concerns of mine because we didn’t score enough points this football season.”

I was real glad to see he said this. This was a huge area of concern that I think got passed off week to week, but hopefully he will see how defenses change once you get in their territory, not just the red zone.
