Why are we aquiring so many run stuffers this offseason?

Indeed it was. I'm excited to see the defense this year. If they can be top 5, and it's looking like they can, this might be one of the best teams to enter the nfl in any era!

Two reasone....One...Ask Marshawn Lynch.

Secondly, if he can do that to us... So can Turner, Blount, and DeAngelo Williams....all guys we see twice a year.

As you know from the play offs we didn't stop the run when it counted so they are pissed. So welcome the big run stuffers.

You won't have to sit with fingers crossed when a team tries to show us they are running.

We have an offense that can put up 30 plus points but we have got to stop teams that their plan is to keep the ball out of Brees hands by running the ball on us. So stop the run force them to throw into our secondary, which is very oppitunistic and good. It'll create turn overs and if anyone is going to run the ball in the game to control the clock... I rather it be us. Lure them into having to stop the run and then let Brees drop back on them and drop a deep one to Mechem... BY THE WAY WHO IS HAVING A DOMINATING CAMP.

This is true, but we also have been able to stop the run when it counts against heavy run first teams. AP, Turner, D Will, and others have all been pretty much held in check by us for the most part these past couple of years. Problem is we did tend to give up the big run play at the most inopportune moments.

Overall grade- A-

Yeah...we spelling cops have been out in full-force recently...he he he.

Unfortunately, When "Spelling Cops" rely exclusively on spell-check to help them, they can break other grammatical rules.

he he he, while spelled correctly, is contextually incorrect.

hee, hee, hee will show as a misspelling in spell-check, as it is slang for laughter. But, it is contextually correct for your purpose.

Just a little bit bored waiting for camp to open today.
Good Times!

You are crap spelling cops. "he he he" is perfectly usable. There are multiple valid laughter simulations, and "he he" is included in that list. However, his incorrect usage of an ellipsis and improper spacing and capitalization after said ellipsis is what you should have pointed out if you were worth a damn.

I like ellipsis (sp?)

, mostly 'cause Danno don't!

Please show me how to be grammatically correct. Give me an example.
