Hell, even TE is going to be interesting to watch and I dare say by the time it's over our running back position will be GREATLY contested after Grant.Building from within creates a tremendous amount of competitive spirit. There's no telling who could win some of these starting positions and key backup roles before it's over. I think too that MM is a perfect coach for this environment because he's fair, black and white with what he expects, and, plays no favorites. I believe we may get more out of this time of year from the players than other teams which also leads to the success we are seeing during the regular season.</blockquote>
