Well I think the level to which our offensive supporting cast has been overrated is quickly becoming clear. Springs had a great point last year talking about the defense, but it applies to the offense as well. He said if you want to know how good you really are, don't look at the names or the contracts, look at the best defense in the league and ask yourself who from your team would start for them.

So if the Pats are the best offense, who do we have who would start for them. Randy Thomas? Maybe? Portis? Maybe maybe not. That's about it.

We haven't had a franchise quarterback in 30 something years so I hope we all give the FO time to construct a team built around Campbell and his strengths before we go writing him off.
