I about drove off the street.  Could Marvin have actually learned something from his hand being forced by injury a year ago?  

He also RAVED about Sam Hubbard and how he just "gets what we want him to do", from drops to contain rushes...he commented that he did all the things they want him to do while he was at OSU and they are very excited to give him the opportunity.

He probably said more about Hubbard in terms of glowing praise than any other player.  He was guarded in his praise for Dalton, but said that he is now the "hammer" that had to pound some nails to get them to produce.  I found that comment telling that he is letting Dalton have more responsibilities in terms of leadership.  I would hope Price (once snapping issues are resolved and I am confident he will be great Thursday and it will become a non-issue) will become the vocal leader on the line.  Also, I would hope Dalton might get more freedom to change calls based on what he sees at the LOS.  

It was mostly blah, blah, blah, but those were some interesting discussions that went on during the show.  I listened while mowing and making dinner.
