    FA will tell is what the draft plan is.

    If they snatch up a vet early then I'll assume they are sticking with Mettenberger but it late April rolls around and we are still Mett/CBJ are the only scrubs still at QB I'll be expecting a QB at two or a situation where we end up with Files or someone else in a trade.

    To get to where Whiz wants to take us we do need a stable run game, simple as that. A vertical offense can't survive if its counterpart isn't drawing the coverage's down.

    A stable run game can't exist without at least the threat of a vertical attack to make the defense step back.

    Luckily we have neither a vertical passing threat or threatening running back.

    Online is softer than a memory foam pillow.

    Well regardless of what you saw last year, we are a vertical passing team, so to make that work we have to create the threat of killing them underneath, thats the reason for improving the RB group. One hand washes the other..

    Who is stretching the field for us?

    Kendall Wright?

    Justin "Crutch" Hunter?

    Mettenberger has the arm to push the the ball down field but his accuracy and decision making ability is the question.

    That and nobody on this roster currently can take the top off the defense except Justin Hunter but he doesn't do it often enough especially when he spends a majority of his time on the bench.

    We send all our WR's deep, Whiz knows what he wants, he's just got to find guys that match his style. Right now Id say both Wright and Hunter could be worked into the future but we'll have to add someone else obviously.

    Sure. But what you are describing is not "smash mouth football". Again it seems there's either a disconnect at the top of the FO or Tommy literally doesn't understand what smash mouth football is.

    I don't get where some of you are feeling reassured by anything Tommy has said. He said the same type of things last year and imo he consistently puts off an aura of cluelessness and "damage control". To me he seems like hes probably a good business man but that doesn't always translate into running a sports franchise very well.

    I like the navy well enough but the light blue was something unique to us.

    Just think of how many NFL teams have navy as the main color of their home (non-white) jersey: Houston, New England, St. Louis, Dallas, Denver, Chicago, Seattle, and San Diego has a navy jersey as well (but I don't know if they've switched to the light blue for good, or if they have two home jerseys).

    I wish we'd stick with the light blue if for no other reason that nobody else has it and makes us unique.

    Im sure all he meant by "smash mouth" was he'd like to see a tougher team in 2015
