He’s had a big season with strong armed Favre, and he’s impressed enough knowledgeable NFL people to make the deal look good, assuming he stays healthy.
Frankly, the same goes for every player in the NFL. They all suck when they’re injured and on the bench.

That was Carter in 33 games

Here’s Williams in 30 games:
44 539 12.2 49 2 0 0 0.0 0 0 3 3

60% more catches for Carter, and he had over 500 yards last year. BMW's best year was '05 at 350 (yards, not pounds!). Carter's getting better, while BMW has been getting worse.

That surely makes me forget Williams. You can’t be serious.

Again! JRuss is a huge improvement over McCown in several ways. He can hit more of the field. He’s way more accurate. He’s much harder to bring down when hit. He’s huge and can see over almost anyone.

One of the new people on the OL is Wade, a definite upgrade over Newberry in terms of health and maybe even in raw talent. That is an upgrade which will help JR for years to come.

The “rookie RB” is named McFadden. LOL!

As for WR’s, you keep forgetting McFadden.

LOL! The topic was “What’s different between 06-07 and 08?”, and you’ll see that if you actually read the first post.

Recap:
Cable’s line
JR’s accuracy over McCown
Redzone improvement
DB’s make it hard to catch up on us
No more take Stu for a 20 yard ride.
Scoring threat on EVERY running play McFadden’s in
McFadden diversity
BMW gone
Old Sapp (we’ll miss him) gone
Closed holes and weak schedule.
More toys and only one QB to train for Kiffin
More toys for Knapp and a real QB.

Actually, I never asked you to admit anything, just to rationally stick to the topic.

Hey! That sounds like a prediction!

Sure sounds like a prediction to me! Why should I admit they are not predictions when in my minds eye they aren't? 

No f’n way. Read the first post again.
