Active Roster
I do not know our Superbowl odds in Vegas - nor do I really care because as a rule I do not bet on sports - and I especially do not bet when it comes to my emotions which are pure Aqua and Orange!
That said, this team has something that I have not seen in a long long time. I admit it I am the ultimate HOMER! To me our team, and players are always the best, until proven otherwise.
This year already I/we have glimpsed a few things that I have not seen since Shula in the mid 80's. We have a coach who has shown signs of having quality leadership, pride, community connections, and a real sense of direction. Cam has not dealt with one regular season play and already I like this guy, not because of reputation or hype (Jimmy Johnson, Nick Saban) but because of his presence and his decision making.
In addition, I have longed for off-season reports like we are FINALLY getting around here. Hagan-improved....Kelly Campbell-healthy, improved...Carey improved...Trent Green, a potential major improvement...L. Booker a seemingly good choice...Ginn, injury not a major setback and has the speed his was touted to have...Satele - the real deal...Porter - good move...Roth - improved...Rod Wright, healthy improved...Samson Salai -looking and acting like a biblical mahamoth figure that will crush you...Travis Daniels, healthy improved...Mormino, seemingly good choice...Martin, the new tight end has shown promise to be what was predicted...
To me that is quite a HUGE statement to have so many positives early on in this process.
Their are others too...And I appreciate the jury is out...way out still on many of these prospective players...But I have thought and seen so many poor decisions by management through recent past years and so many unexpected, devistating injuries that this year (knock on wood) have not appeared.
I am dreaming of an off-season like when Marino was drafted and people were floored. Or when Clayton came along people's eyes buldged out of their heads in AWE!
Now it is all about chemistry, decision making, execution and some really good luck! Maybe 30 to 1 superbowl odds will get me to do the unthinkable and impliment my get some cash quick scheme that will have us all rolling in the aqua and orange paydirt!
