So... Let's be happy for a change. Please, no negativity here. No arguing others 'positive' thoughts. We have plenty of threads for that!
I ask my BGO brethren and... sister...en, bring your positive thoughts HERE! What about this team has you HAPPY! Big, small, WHATEVER IT IS! It's time for a little bit of positivity in our lives!
1. The D-line . I'm so excited to see what our D-line can do this year. 5 first round picks, plus the steal of a draft, and another depth DT that can hang with the big boys. I want to see what kind of HAVOC we can wreak!
2. Scott Turner's offense. I am excited to see a tone of movement, mismatches, and shenanigans that set us up to exploit a defense. First you have McKissic int he backfield, with Gibson at the slot and Sims at the X. Then Gibson motions across and lines up next to Mclaurin. The defense is scrambling and pointing and running around and trying to figure out why the hell Avonte Maddox is man to man vs Sims and it's now Rodney Mcloud on Gibson, but he has to watch McKissic because if McKissic leaks right, then they have to switch at the line, then Nathan Gerry has to pick him up.... Darius Slay and Jalen Mills are screaming at eachother to make sure Mills is playing over the top in the event that McLaurin puts the afterburners on and gets behind Slay.... All while Haskins is letting Gibson know to leak out to the vacated half of the field . Misdirection, forcing the defense to show you their plan, then having a few weapons who can potentially take advantage of it... I like it.
3. We have football folks. Despite all the other nonsense that will go along with it this year, we still have football. We have the Burgundy and Gold lining up against another team this weekend. We can chose to sing HTTR if / when we score. We can scream GO GO GO GO GO GO GO if McLaurin or Gibson gets behind the defense. We can flex our muscles and scream 'GOT EM!' when one of our thoroughbreds gets a sack. We can jump off the couch and scream "PICKED OFF!!!!!" if that happens. We have football... it's back baby!
