Getting the basic plays down? I could see that happening, "We are going to take a lot of losses this year, but it will build the knowledge of the plays, and playbook for next year". Nobody said that, but that's something I could see in the FO. I know that Danny wants a ring bad, maybe he finally realized he can't buy it and it takes a few seasons to get a well-oiled machine. Hmmm.......just a thought. We really don't have too much else to talk about right now...

I remember those screens, Santana is a perfect fit for that. Anyway, since Brunell was the starter in '06 things changed a bit, he used to drop two more steps and look downfield too much. We became easily predictable. The only thing I saw ok was the Cooley routes and the Sellers short routes. We didn't delivered too many passes deep to Moss, we didn't play strong on the running game. We played better with Betts as starter....

With Betts as a starter or with the threat of Campbell's deep ball over Brunell's?

You are funny Earthquake!!!!!!!! There are too many facets of our game that were lacking last year for us to have had any real shot at realistically thinking playoffs. I thought JC would improve things tremendously, but being his first crack at starting he came up short. My major concern is what if the worst case scenario happens and JC just isn't all that. Gibbs has put a lot on JC being the QB of the future and well......... if he isn't we are screwed for a few more seasons down the line. This might sound totally whack, but in the back of my mind I am starting to think maybe we ought to take a serious look at getting Brady Quinn if he is available.
