    Let's all remember that just because a guy is the starter on opening day doesn't mean he'll be the starter throughout.

    If you recall, Alonzo Harris was not the most highly touted freshman running back four years ago. Nor was he the starter in game one. He turned out ok.

    The coaches aren't stupid. If Brooks wins the job, they'll have an offense suited to his strengths. That does not mean we'll throw it 50 times per game. If it's someone else, that offense will be tweaked accordingly.

    This will be a fun (?) debate between now and the end of August.

    I will be surprised if Haack is not the starter. But if he isn't, that will tell me we have a jewel taking snaps.
    That jewel's last name is DAVIS.. Depends on his body's and mental maturation process

    Has Boomer assessed everyone's secondary sexual characteristics?

    He tried to assess mine... by claiming he was placing a dollar in my thong strap.

    Why don't we do like LTU R and many others. Get a one year wonder from a p5 school who graduated and is no longer wanted

    Just think how good his passing would have been if he had stayed out the the upper body weight room.

    His footwork was poor not his flexibility. I respectfully disagree with your weight room belief.

    It irrefutable in the finesse department, heavy weightlifting tears down trained muscles and builds new and more untrained ones.

    Same nonsense that kept baseball players small. Now the best are massive Greek gods.

    Paul Dietzel, Billy Cannon, and Alvin Roy killed that thinking. Cannon heavy work on weights broke world record in the hundred yard dash.

    The muscle bound stereotype has been dead for most of the last fifty years.

    I never said anything about runners.

    I never said stay out of the weight room.

    I said don't build new throwing finesse arm muscles during football season

    Even though Brian lifted heavy at USL, when he got drafted as a RB, he was 3rd on the Redskins QB depth chart. One Monday Night Football game, after both starters went down with injury, and looked like crap, Brian took over in the second half as QB. He marched down the field on his first series, with his arm, and scored a TD. Dandy Don was saying, "Hey, Washington may have a new QB.".

    After the game, they interviewed Brian and asked if he was going to play QB... he said something like, "No, I'm a RB. I bulked up to play RB, and can't really play QB anymore.". And if you looked at his biceps, he was right. There is weight training that clearly isn't good for QB throwing motion. But, since Brian was such an incredibly unique athlete at USL, he got by with lifting heavy. He was the most powerfully built QB you're ever going to see. I've not ever again, even with the craze with weights, seen a QB anywhere close to his build.

    PS I have no opinion on Terrance and weights.
