Most of the great ones have that give me the ball attitude and i would rather have that than the ones that shy away from wanting to make a play. I honestly believe joe is gonna live or die running his complete offense this year instead of the bastardized version we ran this year. If that's the case Mingo will have plenty of chances to make big plays.Quote:

Like OM convinced him I guess...when was the last time a big time RB went to OM?Quote:

He said "possibly." I think we're very much in the game with him. I hate he's already used his OV with us though. OM has their's in late January and you know how those last minute visits go..
