Pratt is a huge upgrade at Linebacker and Tem is now our Linebacker coach who can work with all these guys and get them up to par. Coaching is what was needed here, good coaching.
Austin and Haslett were terrible.
Brees was insanely accurate at Purdue and carried a bunch of underachievers to relevancy. The Brees Purdue squads knocked off some big boys and punched way above their weight. When has Finley elevated NC State? He got Wally Pipped at Boise by Rypien (who was arguably a better choice), went to NC State, and presided over middle of the pack NC State squads that have sent multiple guys into the NFL. Brees made a legend out of Vinnie Sutherland. I’m glad the Bengals got a QB, but do not see Finley as Dalton’s eventual replacement.
