decent O-line. The difference between the coaching style of PA and Pollack is night and day. PA was never good at
coaching up his guys in the run game.


Yep, speaking of Hill i also liked what i saw out of Brian Hill in the Detroit game last season. I think he could be a good
3rd RB for us in case one of our main backs go down. He has nice size and burst and sees holes well, something i thought
Jeremy had some problems with.

that have went on this Offseason i would prefer to talk about. Let the Burfict haters bash him in the other thread/threads...

Bringing in Frank Pollack and then trading for Cordy Glenn were two giant moves that i never thought would of happened.

If we bring in a top Center in the Draft and another RT for competition we have the RB's to really tear up Defenses. Pollack
coached the best run blocking O-line in football the last couple years and i believe that Mixon is a more talented back than
what he had over there even if i may get some hate for saying it.

I would like to see an O-line of this come the regular season....

LT - Cordy Glenn
LG - Clint Boling
C - Frank Ragnow/Billy Price/James Daniels
RG - Christian Westerman/Alex Redmond
RT - Jake Fisher/Rookie

If we can run the ball it will take Merv's poor halftime adjustments and game management out of the equation.

A strong running game is definitely Andy's best friend.  If they get the right Center on board, I could see this offense averaging 30+ per game.

incentive laden Eifert contract, top tier Center in the Draft to help Andy and the run game, 30+ per game, damn.

If the Patriots get more mileage from them, more power to them!
