Seriously though, we restrict the creation of polls to the moderators only so we don't have a board full of polls, I've seen other forums that allow everyone to create polls and it seems to get a little out of control.

I just donated some money about a month ago. Was that enough?LOL

See, I think we're moving in the right direction when there isn't one off-season signing that can be seen as "our savior" for the year. We filled needs instead of going for flash. And that's why I haven't been more excited than when we signed Rabach. He'll help anchor the line. You probably won't hear his name called much during the season, but I really feel he'll help our offense in several ways.

I have to say Moss. I'm excited about McCune but I've seen Moss make some clutch plays downfield. This is what we need the most.

If I had to pick what I'm most excited about in general, I would say I'm most excited to see the formations Gibbs is going to run with a new mind at QB coach. I know he won't set the plays, but I'm sure he'll have some valuable input.

I don't know who mentioned him first, but Rabach is definately I guy I didn't consider/remember. He should be a very solid addition and hopefully he'll help Portis get over 4.2 ypc.

I was reading on the Skins site that Gibbs is going to start using the shot gun this year. It seems that our offense is getting a complete overhaul from last year .

TheMalcolmConnection · 05-16-2005, 03:03 PM

I think he said he's going to try it out in camp and see how it works. Fumbles are much more common when using the shotgun formation. I wouldn't mind it in long yardage situations, I just don't want to see it a WHOLE lot.

Jason Campbell. A new QB always sparks interest in me. Especially when they're not a washed up veteran.

Nunyo saying some slightly positive things.

I think Nemo will be make the big splash, Roger's is expected to produce which I believe he will, but other than Rogers, Nemo will make the biggest impact of the rook's.

TheMalcolmConnection · 05-16-2005, 04:12 PM

I'd love to see us have a bruising back to run in conjunction with Portis. I hope either White or Nemo pans out.

I'm excited to see Brunell throw the ball around some.

mooby · 05-16-2005, 04:39 PM

brunell? why? didn't you see his performance in the first eight games last season? wasn't that enough for you? the dude has lost all accuracy, and throw power. when he threw the ball last season it looked like he threw it with a broken arm or something. if his arm was going this way ^ the ball would go this way >

I get it. Nemo-Finding Nemo, as in fish, splash-as in water. Damn Offiss, your posts are always on a higher plane aren't they.

I think Rabach is exciting because he's a definite (I hope) improvement over the person he's replacing. If all goes well we'll never hear from Rabach all season long. Rogers, Holdman, Moss-those are all at the moment nothing more than lateral moves really over who we had before

I'm guessing he was kidding, at least I hope so.

And wow, Brunell is gonna be pretty sad in Madden if both his "accuracy" and "throw power" are down. I think you might have forgotten awareness though...his awareness is depleted as well.
