Basically, it all starts with Portis

I agree with most everything you say in your post, there is a warm feeling of stability around the franchise now. While I will forever believe that if Spurrier had the defense we had last year our record would have been playoff callibre. The problem is, Spurrier wouldn't get rid of his college guys. While I respect his loyalty, it also cost him his job.

Everyone knows I've been a Spurrier fan forever (my dad went to Florida watching him play, and we used to watch the gators nearly every time they got on national TV) so I have a connection to him.

That being said, he would have had to make radical changes to be in the NFL and some personel changes as well.

What I'm getting at Matty, is if you trust the coaching staff, that's fine, on most issues, so do I. But there have to be times when you deviate from their thinking. Its only human nature! While we dont know all the behind the scenes information that would make our guesses irrelevant, it's still fun and what I love to see about the site. Speculation is fun.
