Just a Thought

Another problem everyone is overlooking is the team chemistry aspect of it. Can you get 43 guys to gel and come together to act as two cohesive units(offens and defense) We have gobs of talent on offense, but they stink, with the execption of our runnning game. We have a potential disaster with 3 star WR's who will want the ball often, etc. I remember poor Dante Culpepper in the early days at Minnesota, having Chris Carter and Moss bitching at him often. I mean look at the Norv teams of the mid 90's. All we had really was Ken Harvey and Darrell Green. Big Daddy and Stubblefield were OK for like 2 s easons, but then faded. We had Gus, Westbrook, Connell, and an old Terry Allen, on offense. Those guys were not as talented as this crew, but did perform much better. How many 300 yard games did Ramsey, Brunell, or even JC have? Gus had plenty, especially against the Cards, and didn't have the tools like MB or JC have now at their disposal. Could you imagine what Gus would have done if he had Santana, Cooley, and Randle El? We would have made the playoffs for a few more years under Norv for sure.
