Holy crap you're not seriously comparing Travis Minor with Faulk, Sanders and Davis are you??? :eek:
Mack might not be good, i cant say for sure. But the reasoning he couldnt win the job on an expansion team has no backing. He DID win the job, but he got injured, and Dominick Davis played so well, they kept playing him. Also just cuz there an expansion team doesnt mean nething, they were an expansion team witha young talented RB on it.Mr. Miyagi said:IMO, Mack is done. If you couldn't win the starting job in a brand spanking new expansion team, you're useless. I wouldn't bother with him.

I keep hereing Edge in 05'...What if Minor goes off for a 1000 yds and 10-12 td's? Are we still wanting Edge at this time next year?....just a thought. We should give the guy a chance before we make plans for 05. And dont give me the crap about his size. Look at Faulk...Sanders...Terrell Davis..it wont wash.
look at portis him and minor same size minor will surprise alot of people this year ricky who :Ddolphindude13 said:I agree with letting Konrad do the short yardage and keeping Minor in the feature back spot.

he is talking about there size people say minor is to small well i think he might be bigger than portis .Mr. Miyagi said:Holy crap you're not seriously comparing Travis Minor with Faulk, Sanders and Davis are you??? :eek:
Unfortuantley u might be right. We can only hope this offensive coaching staff does atleast change enuff to make it comfortable on the QB(as much as possible) etc. But at this point...we can only prayray: .jaxdolfan said:I'd like to stick with Minor and let Henry or Russell spell him or be 3rd down backs. That is just wishful thinking. It simply will not work in our current scheme. The Norv Turner scheme requires that you pound the ball to open up the passing game. That is what Wanny is sticking with this season, and it is too late to install another scheme. I also believe that Wanny is inflexible and will end up sticking Minor in there, or Mack or whomever and run them straight into 8 defenders on 7 out of 10 plays.
I think what you guys are wanting is to use Minor in a slightly different role as Ricky's. Use him like Buffalo did Travis Henry...Lots of runs around the corners and swing passes against man coverage (like the Jets and Bills shredded us with,) and lots of quick passes against zone. A few runs up the middle to keep them honest, but basically new playcalling.
I doubt we'll see it. It just isn't in Wanny's philosophy to change his gameplan to suit his personnel. We'll see the same plays and all we can hope for is that Feely can finally connect on the few longballs that are called.
...how exactly do u kno the physical condition of Stacey Mack? I find it hard to believe uve been monorting his work habits, diet etc. over the offseason:shakeno: .MelbournePhin said:mack is out of shape. I doubt we sign him. I hope that leonard henry is healthy. Im excited to see how he can do. BTW, whats up w/F. russell? Will he make the team?
