Frankly, this has been one of the better threads in a while, IMHO. I was there and can respect everyone's perspective.
My quick hits:
-Simm or CT-We have 2 legit, confident and qualified QB's to get us to a bowl game.
-I personally am a huge Ervin fan, but Grant looked best yesterday. I still think Ervin and Allen are studs and may the best man win.
-WR was spring time material. Kemp is a great addition. Comradery is there and Senior leadership leads me to believe we will be just fine.
-At TE, we seem to want this to be a key cog, and I'm sure it will, but yesterday was average. Couple drops, vanilla play. But, I like the TE dive and when you take some out of the blue like Jameire Bonner and put him as FB, you are being creative. I like this philosophy.
-OL, welcome Ben Scott. Something about him resonates PipeLine football. Hopefully, it spreads.
-I am confident that with the style of defense and acumen of the coaches, we will have a more than competent DL. For a little levity....Hood looks like a former Georgia tackle. Good night, Irene.
-I was happy for the traditionalist side of me seeing MR 75 have a good game. He looked fast and natural in the edge position. Sherman being coached up is why he is here instead of being tanked on the 4 deep. If I am correct, he had a huge hit on a kick return that looked more violent than what I've seen in a while-in a good way. Scheme will be intriguing with the talent we have here.
-We have studs across the board here. Heck, I would feel confident with a 3-2-6 if we had too. Confidence abides. On last play of game (supposed last play), you had 3 stud safeties (Newsome, Farmer, and Singleton) dancing to the fact that they were about to get ready to rock someone. 6-2, 215-200, experienced and coached right is a one hell of a cocktail. Greatest and most compelling play of the day for me was when there was a play where it wasn't sure if there was a fumble by the QB or not and someone picked it up to advance it. Out of nowhere, Hartzog absolutely blows him up. That is why our D is going to be stellar. We have a very, very deep secondary. Keep in mind that one second favorite player on D, Buford Jr. is still rehabbing.
To conclude, because my wife wants to go to a garage sale, I am confident where we are heading. And the reason is because we have coaches dedicated to the craft. Nothing poignant, just a quick summary.
