The other interesting thing in this article is the mention that Collins already knows Al Saunders offense. I think we can take that as a definite clue that those who have been speculating that Al came here only to tweak Joe Gibbs' offense from last season are wrong.

except that saunders said in his interview he was going to tweak it to make it more point productive.
The bigger clue of what he's doing comes from the fact that he only brought over 1 assistant coach with him (his son) and not an entire staff like GW has done. 1 assistant and 1 player
Maybe wholesale changes will come, but i don't think we'll see a total morph in one year, especially since the main ideas are there and the biggest change is verbage and playcalling.
also, carson palmer was #1 overall in the draft (and not a projected 2nd rounder), sat his first year, and led his team to an 8-8 record his second year. when we're thinking SB, 8-8 isn't going to be good enough.
