?I like the fact that we are spreading the field. We are using different formations. We are putting extra receivers in the game, widening them out and taking shots down the field. We are not putting ourselves in a situation where we are trying to run to a fence when it?s not there. That?s what I like. It?s a lot of efficiency and it?s a lot of rhyme and reason to what we are doing.? ?Definitely, you have to be excited every time you walk to the line of scrimmage and you see Chris Chambers, you see Marty Booker, you see Randy (McMichael), and you see Ricky (Williams) back there. As a quarterback you feel pretty good about the guys you have around you.?
I think Miami has the best team out of the top 5 teams that finshed last, last year. Feely has some good targets, he also has David Boston to throw to.
I think this is going to be a very interesting year for the offense as well. AJ Feeley could turn out to be decent with all the talent that is around him, coming from a backup position sometimes it takes a few years to get used to being the starter, sometimes it works out good other times a backup can never make a good starter so we shall see. The offense will definetly be opened up more.
Feely had not much help last year, he should do better with one more year of starting. He has 2 good RBs, and some good reciving threats. Now all he needs a good offensive line
The OL is shaping up. Vernon Carey (#1 pick in 04) s/b the starting Left Tackle. He is holding his own against Jason Taylor. Acquiring Middleton (former Raider) to back up and perhaps start @ ORG & (Former Eagle) Ephraim to play C or RG should help. LT, LG, & RG are pretty much set.

those guys arent that good. Its not like a huge pickup like Wahle and Rivera. Those guys are elite guards and went to teams in free agency
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (panthersare#1)</div><div class='quotemain'>those guys arent that good. Its not like a huge pickup like Wahle and Rivera.

I've haven't seen "elite" guards in decades. If I remember right they sort of look like this..... LARRY LITTLE BOB KUCHENBERG
How bout you don't need Elite talent on the line...you just need tough coachable guys willing to work and a good Coach...the phins line will improve greatly just cus of Houck...and the Pats have had a very solid line the last two years with alot of late round picks and UDFA purely because Dante Scarnecchia is one of the better OL caoches in the league....I mean a line of Light Andruzzi Koppen Hochstein Ashworth yeilded no sacks in the playoffs two years ago and they faced Tenn (Kerse), Indy(Freeney), and Carolina (Peppers/Rucker)..all these teams had a premeir pass rusher never mind blitzing safties and LB's...its all about coaching, play calling, and preparing them for what they will see...
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (panthersare#1)</div><div class='quotemain'>Mike Wahle is a elite guard, he can play tackle also. Also Brian Waters is a elite guard</div> Nope, beef is right
Well when the packers get a lot of sacks from up the middle they are gonna wish they kept those 2 elite guards.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (panthersare#1)</div><div class='quotemain'>Well when the packers get a lot of sacks from up the middle they are gonna wish they kept those 2 elite guards.</div> More likely, You are looking at wahle through panthers covered glasses and to keep from getting called on this through waters in the mix as well. What will actually happen is Wahle will have almost no impact on panthers season, Pack avoided Cap hell by letting them go, Panthers havent done enough over paying to hurt them, but with all the players they have coming up, it is just a matter of time There are no elite gaurds they are called tackles, and if you move wahle to tackle he is not a good tackle, he is a bad tackle.
