    Ricky, Bobby, and Billy up on Kirby.

    Ultimately I lean to blaming O'Brien because I think he was given wide discretion on personnel and he's a QB guru.

    That's true, but talking about when BOB was in NE was the only time he's had success in the NFL running an offense so it's sort of giving him the benefit of the doubt.....but still not very good because it's still saying that only arguably the best QB in NFL history can make BOB look good.

    I'm guessing every receiver he's ever played with was at some point in their lives employed by Barnum and Bailey. Apparently Watson has had a high completion percentage throughout his entire football career.

    An unbelievable, seemingly unending list of accomplishments.

    I'm trying to temper it, but I'm totally excited about Watson, too. I really hope it works out...

    I like pairing him up with Reader and having 2 young DTs with somewhat different skill sets. If these guys pan out, we could have a formidable duo at DT on the cheap for the next few seasons.

    What is DT? Surely not defensive tackles, because neither Watt or Clowney will be cheap.

    Think he's referring to Reader, Watkins, and Covington as the young DTs on the cheap with different skill sets.

    Too bad that a**hole from Notre Dame didn't pan out.

    Were we not expecting him to make progress yet?
