The Bright Side

[Brandon]

Yes we sucked ass yesterday in just about every conceivable manner. We need to let that go. We know Jake isn't going to be the answer in the future and that our coaching staff isn't as good as we'd like but there is a lot to like about the future:

DeAngelo Williams/Jonathan Stewart: These guys are amazing and should be around for a LONG time, so we will have that to look forward to. Sure they were underutilized in our loss but it was just one game.

Dwayne Jarrett: I think he will be something special, easily our answer for a 3rd WR. He was running crisp routes and has made some good catches this year, so hopefully he gets the roster spot next season and we get the ball in his hands. If he can turn out to be a good blocker even better.

OL: For the first time in the longest we have a very solid OL with very few noticeable holes, and the backups aren't half bad either. I doubt getting Gross back will be as big of an issue as some of you may feel it is. Even better, most of these guys are young and should be with the team for a long time.

Brayton: He's made remarkable progress over the course of the season, playing well against the run and much improved on passing downs. Along with rotational support from CJ we should be fine at LDE for a while.

Peppers: He may walk, which will be good for our team. Don't get me wrong, he's a tremendous athlete but he doesn't have the motor the truly great DE's have and he isn't worth that kind of money. What does this mean for us? It means we'll have a lot more cap room to fix our issues.

LB Corps: We have two of the best LB's in the league with Beason and Davis, and they'll be around for a while as well. Most teams struggle to find one good, consistent linebacker, we have 3.

Gamble/Harris/Godfrey: The core of our secondary is very strong and should be even better next year with more time together, chemistry is important for DB's so another year together will only help.

I liked Charles Johnson better than Brayton this season.

The Bright side...

is that we WILL be under the rader until we win it all no matter what kind of team we field.

How many special recievers are we going to waste before Fox realizes it's Jake that needs to go?

Jake could throw 8 picks in consecutive pass plays and Fox wouldn't bench him.
