Nothing against our current tight ends but Redman and Ibn Green had been playing together since little league and thos two were money. They knew exactly what the other was doing and at crunch time they were a dependable combo.

I think Brohm to Douglass have had that the last 6 games but the same magic isnt winning us ball games now.

Our offense puts up enough points and yardage that would normally control a game but our defense is giving up way too much to our opponents.

Defensive backs are our most glaring weakness and a dominant pass rusher were used to (Dumervil, Okoye) has yet to emerge this year.

Pressure by comittee not a one man wrecking ball is going to have to emerge on this years squad.

This team is far different than the team from last year despite the familiar names (Brohm, Douglas, Cantwell, Spillman, Uruttia ect) , they havent gelled yet and may not in time to save the season.

Where is Brock Bolen ??????????????
