An aggressive passing game? I wouldn’t know how to react–other than it would increase the chances of an interception ruining my Sunday. On the other hand . . . with a running threat in the backfield, maybe some decent blocking, a quality tight end–my suffering may be over. One more thing . . . HEY BLOGMAN–THANKS FOR THE NAILS CARD! I’M FINDING A WAY TO MOUNT IN ON THE WALL OF MY OFFICE AS I WRITE THIS!

good post. I’m looking forward to a variety of sets. It isn’t like the Colts can’t run with their 3WR set. I think it can compliment one another and create openings.

In fact, its could be considered a modification of the college spread attack.

I think, clearly, that had to be what the Lions had in mind when drafting M. Williams.

I think this is the best offseason we’ve had in some time, and if Joey can show himself as a player with the talent he has lacked (even if he is adequate) than this could be a wild card team.

What about the NFL.com article claiming that of the top three QBs taken in the ‘02 draft, Carr ranks the highest?

This guy –

– thinks it’s Harrington, but based on what?

The 3 WR sets are going to put a fair amount of stress on opponent defenses. If they go nickel to compensate, Jones gets to run at one less LB. If they stay in a standard 4-3, Mike Williams will be able to abuse almost any LB covering him. It’s going to be a good season, boys!!!
