He is still a bit inaccurate on the long throws at times, but at least now, they are slight overthrows instead of underthrowing it into coverage.  The outlet in Eifert is a big help for, to be sure....the return of Marvin Jones is crucial too.  Throw in the dual threat of Rex Burkhead, and this offense has a chance to be special.

THIS Andy, running THIS offense, with THIS defense bringing the pain, can take us anywhere we hope to go.

 EVERYBODY, coaches included, has stepped up their game.  Truly impressive to behold.
