What is our offensive identity?

Let's just remember that when Todd Collins came to the team he said this offense would take a year to fully digest.

A full year.

The problem with that is that is that it seems like this team was built for short term success. We have all these big contracts out there that are backloaded, meaning that many of our big FA signings probably won't be around too long before they either need to be restructured or cut. I guess that begs the question, did we try to do too much by bringing in Saunders?

yes, EXACTLY, any offense takes time to master.

thats why we should wait till Brunell is 37.

Oh yeah, that was the other point I meant to make before.

If this system was expected to take so long to get than we should have let Campbell lead it from the beginning. Then again, that thought is made in hindsight, because we all thought we were going to the Super Bowl this season.

that thought wasn't in hindsight for everybody. a ton of us here begged for Campbell to get more practice time during the preseason.

not that we didn't appreciate Brunell last season, but with a whole new offense coming in this offseason, many of us questioned the benefit of investing time trying to teach Brunell new tricks.

Brunell could be 40 before he gets this system. He looks way too lost.
