PS – Now that we have TO in the fold, I don’t want you to go all crazy and start throwing it every down, Bob — and none of this ”West Coast Offense” nonsense. Your strength last year was running the ball often and well, so don’t ignore the ground game.
All these Upgrades to your receiving corp should make you school girlishly giddy, and if Coach Zimmer does his thing again with the Defense and you allow Carson to be Carson, who knows how far this team can go? To the moon, Alice?
Touchdown passes are connected to the elbow bone ...
Look, the TO signing is all the buzz, and he’s now your weapon to use as you please. Just remember to use the power for good on the field, and don’t worry about what he and Chad Estupido do off the field.
TO gives you the weapon you lost with the unfortunate passing of Slim last season; a big target who can make DB’s sweat when they are in the red zone, forcing them to think about double coverage.
And the fact Carson (AKA “Mr. Melancholy”) is excited about adding TO to his stable of receivers is enough for me. We’ve seen what happens when the QB and WR are “in sync” (think Good Chad and Good TJ) and we’ve seen what happens (incompletions, interceptions and drops) when they are out of sync (think the lost decade of the 90′s.)
Now that you have a Pro Bowl QB, a Pro Bowl RB, a couple of Pro Bowl WR’s, and a serviceable OL that will only get better if healthy, it’s like you’re stepping into a time warp: Hello 2005 all over again.
I know I was hard on you last year, Bob, and accused you of having spiralarialphobia (fear of the forward pass) late in the season. But I want you to know that I have confidence that, with all the tools in your stable now, you will be like the proverbial fat kid in a well-stocked candy store.
Just remember: Throw them the damn ball, Bob! (But not too much — you’ll get a tummy ache.)
Nuff said.
