I don't think our Offense in general saw a lot of playing time. I believe that MS/KS really used pre-season to evaluate depth, and get a feel for what certain players could do. Maybe I am wrong, and this offense sputters about trying to find itself, but I think if that were the case we would have seen more planned and targeted play development. Instead we saw targeted player development. That goes for RBs WR's and OL groupings. MS/KS instill a lot of confidence in me that we are going to see an efficient organized attack, with our strengths (TE's, CP, and maybe Armstrong/Galloway) emphasized and our weaknesses (DT and Sanatana's tendencies to drop catchable passes, ineffective power runs) minimized except for the big play or necessary moments.

Having said that, I remember the opener with Gibbs/Saunders against the Vikings, our pre-season had been vanilla, and that first play everyone was shifting everywhere, but we still lost. So, I'll drink the kool-aid, but Sunday night the Skins better be tossing out the Real Thing!
