Getting us in the 25 range want get it.

After Ryan, everybody's gonna love this guy! At least until the season starts.

This move alone fills me with hope. It gives every player on defense a free pass and breath of fresh air after the many years of stupidity we all suffered through.

Addition by subtraction. The defense will get better because Ryan is gone.

Add Browner to that list and you see what he means...

Seriously speaking, rotation should be HUGE. Keep those BIG GUYS in the trenches FRESH. This is what I'd like to see...

1st and 2nd downs :
Rankins/St. Nick
Cam Jordan
John Jenkins
David Oyemata/Bobby Richardson

On 3rd down ...
Add Kikaha / Tull & rotate JJenkins out.

Keep your eye on Oyemata at camp. This guy has the potential to be very disruptive.

Love the idea of that! Our D line as a whole could be one of our strengths!

All of this would be great but it will be all for naught if our offense somehow manages to take a step back. Its going to take our offense staying in the top 5 along with a signifigent improvement on defense to be a real threat.

Again, Allen did not really show the improvement after Ryan left enough. That could be in part due to a inefficient offense in the first half.

I say move training camp from paradise back to Houma or to Hammond like it was during the Dome patrol era, and electrify the metal bench on the sidelines. That will force everyone onto a training bike.... CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
