Looks like a fun offense to watch on paper.

Welcome home Hatter. Seems like just yesterday, LOL. Glad you're back just in time for the SB run to begin. Emery did a hell of a job of upgrading talent and adding depth. He did more for this team in one offseason than Angelo did in 8 out of his 10.

Glad you see the Rodriguez = Kleinsasser connection too. Kleinsasser was a real pain in ass when Tice was coaching in Minny. When they weren't throwing to him he was shadowing Urlacher to block on every play. Kid has some Aaron Hernandez in him too and not just the similarity of their Hispanic surnames.

We are actually beginning to look like the Vikes offense of old. Marshall and Jeffrey don't have Moss kind of speed but what Jay wanted was a couple of "aircraft carriers" who could threaten the middle and the sidelines anyway and that's exactly what we got for him. Forte reminds me a lot of that old Vikes RB Chuck Foreman too. This offense has improved it's weaponry and depth by 100% over last year. Now if the pass blocking will just hold up we finally have an offense that can match the defense.

Good to have you here!
