All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!

For a #4 pick Mike Williams is looking like a bust......Sad to say but true. Does he play like a #4? Maybe another season will help him. Maybe Jim McNally will fix him.
Simply by subtracting KG and Pat Ruel from the equation, you're going to see improvement in the O-line play. These oast two seasons under KG as OC have been abyssmal, to say the least. I saw far and away too many offenses that did a lot more with a lot less talent. NE's offensive scheme is nothing special-except that it is very simple; basic. It minimizes the opportunities for mistakes. In KG's system, the QB had to make 9-15 reads, depending on how each receiver read every coverage. Cut that down to 3-4 reads and your entire offense looks like it's really on the same page every play-as it should be.
Someone said "What's he gonna turn out like?" Ha!
And someone else said "Never mind!"

I agree with Helmut guy that the OL will be better with KG and Ruel gone. I haven't been this excited in an OL coach in a long time. The players never got better in recent years and never seem to play good as a unit. With McNally in charge and a simplified offensive scheme I wouldn't be surprised if Williams is a pro bowler by 2005...
While Pucillo looked horrible and bush-league at the start of the season ... just before his injury I think he had improved a lot and looked merely well-below average. He still has a long way to go before he's a solid starter ... but keeping him as depth and hoping that in another year or two he'll be a capable starter is not a bad idea IMO.
Originally posted by Tatonka wys seems to think pucillo is good.. rofl.. funny how someone can see things so clearly on one player and be so blatently wrong on another.

I agree. I watched his play a lot after he helped sack Drew at the start of the Eagles game and I noticed marked improvement. Not enough that I think he's a very solid starter, but enough that he's worth continuing to look at.
