The more I read about him, the more I like him. But on the cautionary side I would say that I felt that way about Shannon Dawson too. Sooooooo

Yeah, but LT is moving Timmons around with help from Gran to try and find where he fits the best.

Vs.

Yeah, we don't run the QB, use the TE, etc. Basically utilize any of the offensive weapons we posses.

The WRs definitely lacked effort last season. Effort leads to focus. Focus leads to improvement. Improvement leads to scores. I think Yoda said that.

I think it was Ernest T Bass . . . but whoever said it I agree with it. What we lacked last year was polish and effort. Run better routes and run them harder and it would make a world of difference with the talent we have. And Timmons is the poster child for this. Bring that guy closer to the ball and teach him how to torment linebackers with is quickness and speed dragging and delaying across the middle and see if he we all don't change our tune on what we think of him.

Dawson didn't seem to put much time into just making these guys better at the basics.

Well, I can guarantee you that neither Thomas nor Gran will put up with some of the crap our WRs did last year. Whether it be effort, attitude or performance.

Personally, I love Thomas' attitude and confidence. We need more of that honestly.

Don't get me wrong, I love the coaches that work their voice boxes. Good on 'em! Will that translate into better production though? I'm thinking stick-em might be more useful [winking].

GBB!!!

Love Thomas and the corp of WR's we have returning but at the end of the day the success of this season is going to come down to the play of the offensive line and whether we can find some consistent QB play.
