It's hard to say how good some of these guys are because they such a strong team approach. There is a tendency to give Tom Brady a lot of the credit, but maybe those receivers make Brady look better than he would otherwise, but they are perceived as "average."
With our defense, we tended to say that Arrington was such a huge part of the success we had - and then he goes out, we find out some other guys could play that no fan would have thought could remotely do what they did this season. Our team ethic and gave them a chance for their talents to come out.
Anyway I think the path to success for our offense is getting it going with the same team ethic, and that means you don't have to go to the star search approach, where you have to find the home run hitter in free agency, to mix a sports metaphor.
I can see Taylor Jacobs fitting into that, and James Thrash - those are team guys. But Rod Gardner doesn't strike me as Mr. Team, nor does Darnerian "no special teams" McCants, nor does Laveranues Coles, in my perception, strike me as a "all for one and one for all type" although I hope I am wrong about that.
