Getting Rattay doesn't get us anywhere, IMO.

Knowing is half the battle. It's also the easy part that anyone can do.

Having the talent experience to get the work done is the other half, and that's the hard part that only a select few american individuals have ever acheieved. I believed Rattay has proven that his mind and skills are proficient at the NFL level, whereas Collins has done nothing of the sort.

I understand that it takes a year worth of experience in Saunders system to be totally comfortable, but I think that's the case in any system. Brunell and Campbell both played relatively well with less than a year of experience and total comfort in the system. It's not like there's a rule that a guy can't play if he's in his first year in this system, it just means we'll be optimistic that he will get a tad better as he gets more comfortable.
