That offense won't work at the NFL level.....aspects of it will, NE used some aspects of it at times.

But you can't stand in a shotgun every single play in the NFL. In college you will see an elite level pass rusher maybe once a year, in the NFL you may see 1 every week some teams have more than 1, all the QB's would get lit up, and you best believe those WR's and the routes in that scheme would get destroyed by LB's when they crossed into the middle..

It's just like the old option, it's a college scheme that the athletes in the NFL would never allow to work, it would lead to major injuries more than anything.

And I like Brennan, but I still think he's a project that still need some work.

I'm sure that didn't have anything to do with getting a new head coach who wanted him to do everything completely different.

Well, this is year 2 with Ken Weisenhunt. Campbell is in year 1 with Zorn. There's a difference there.

Of course if I wanted to play a weird edge to this what if I said, look how well Collins played last year, what if Joe Gibbs thought it would be a great idea to split him and Campbell during games...

That was a obviously stupid idea by Whisenhunt but to each their own.

Eh, Collins just had a lighting in a bottle moment. Just like Huard had his when Trent went down. I'm sure you remember that, then the following season that he just completely stunk up the joint badly.

Collins didn't looks too hot in his first pre-season game. Although, it is just pre-season, Collins isn't getting any younger, so if Washington was smart, they'd get most of the reps to Brennen, IMHO.

But IIRC, wasn't Leinart drafted by Denny Green and not Whisenhut?

That isn't really that different when you take other factors into account like the Redskins are you know a better team....

Neither guy is exactly setting the world on fire.

Well, this is Matt's 3rd year. He's going to have to show up. I think he has a decent line now. He has a good RB and 2 good WR's. No excuses not to be at least contending for a wild card.

well watching him was awesome, he is a great potential to discover, he truly brings one hell of a game to the field and makes all of his plays look so simple, and he enjoys playing for fun, not money

How many Georgia Bulldogs were on the field for the Colts?

Bump...Mecca was like a prophet in this thread.

Cable may be making this old controversy come back to life. When asked how Colt Brennan was looking, he replied "He has a knack for completing passes I don't think any other QB on the team has. I'd really like to see more of him the next couple of weeks, see if he levels off."

Odd, then, that Cable didn't play him. At all.

I only saw the kid play one game in college, but he blew me away. I'll admit I sorta thought maybe he'd be something special. I guess a job evaluating potential NFL talent is not in my future.

Eh 6th round pick, you can take a shot sometimes, hell throwing a 6 at Brennan is a better risk than throwing one at Kevin Robinson or Jake O'Connell.
