It's the type of article itself that I am referring to. We've seen the now or never articles, the changes will be made articles, etc.
I just don't get excited by them anymore.

When has this type of article been published that directly quotes and gives the mindset of a player that can be the key to victory for us? Marvin may have said things like this, but he's not on the field.

I've heard a few players say "we think we're in a position to be special," or something similar, but has it ever been said by anyone that can have this much of an effect on our success?

Will any of those players touch the ball 25 to 30 times a game and individually dominate a game?

Seriously though, you're arguing with a brick wall.

I know exactly what you and Stormborn are saying, and I completely agree.

I'm pumped beyond belief to see Hill for a full season with a bigger workload.

Not so pumped for this article no matter who said it this time. We've been through this song and dance with different players, coaches, beat writers, fans, etc. etc. We get it, we're going to win a playoff game this year and the urgency is here!......as if they haven't been saying that for the last quarter of a century.

To both of you and anyone else that said something similar: you're all saying it's just empty rhetoric, but when was the last time that a player that looks like he'll be a top back in the league and carry this team said anything like this?

Hill will be the main point of our offense and will force teams to try and stop him, which will leave things wide-open for AJ and anyone else.

Post some of the other 3,000 other articles that are as persuasive or have as much credibility as this one. Be sure to illustrate how the words in those articles aren't just empty rhetoric. Show how the players mentioned and quoted in those articles can have such a big impact on whether or not we win or lose. Please back that up with facts and show how those players were able to take over games and lead us to victory.

The point is that Hill was one of the better (if not the best) backs in the league in the second half of the season last year, dominated teams, and set-us up to win any game because good luck selling-out to stop him while also finding a way to cover AJ (and then our other weapons if you find a way to do that).
