aside boxer coming defense guy intentions main people script trying
Most people script, but people script for different reasons. I think the main thing you want to do, aside from scoring, is kind of see what the intentions of the defense are on that first drive, in that first set of plays. It's kind of like a boxer coming out and jabbing a little bit. You're trying to see what the other guy is going to do.

backs coming ends good last lose tight veterans whitney
Last year, we relied on our receivers because our backs were so young. Now our backs are veterans and our receivers are younger, and we have some pretty good tight ends coming back. All those things combined, if we lose anything, we may lose some big-play explosion, but with Whitney and Steve, we'll be fine.
