KC Joyner picks skins...

[JoeRedskin]

I know it's early, and I know it's easy to feel hyped when nobody's playing - But DAMN, I am psyched for next year.

This is a team that, despite some turnover, is essentially the same group that started out three years ago. Springs, Portis, Washington, Griffin, Brunnell, the ENTIRE O-Line (yes Rabach was new last year, but other than that these guys have been together for a while!). This defense is going to be scary good next year - they will hurt people. Receivers will be hearing footsteps every time they cross the line of scrimmage. With Saunders running the offense, the new WR's aquired, and the support it gets from the defense, this year's offense could be VERY entertaining! I know people question Brunnell, but I think he clearly has something left in the tank AND, if Gibbs follows through on the "I am gonna protect him from injury more", he will (hopefully) be fine at the end of the year. Even if Brunnell goes down, I think the Skins have created a situation for Campbell to succeed - strong running game and O-Line, excellent defense. With Campbell running the show, things might not be AS explosive, but I am betting he will do at least as well as Big Ben or Palmer (after he sat out a year).

BTW - I personally think that, other than the Saunders signing, the continuity on the O-Line is the next biggest factor in our likely success.

Okay, I am over the joy juice now.

95 days and counting to monday night.
