Hilliard,Cobbs,Thigpen, and more

The more i think about it the more i love our offense for the upcoming season. Remember Cobbs? (Who doesn't)

well if you are one of those people then shame on you. Cobbs was an amazing change of pace back we had until he went out with his injury. I think this year he will bring that one or two long plays out of the backfield that we need. Then there is Hilliard who i think will be our back for a long while. He runs well and catches very well, and i think that the more that we play him the better he will get. If you need proof on either cobbs or hilliard. Cobbs had 2 80 yd receptions in 08 and ended the year with 275 yards. That's pretty decent for a 3rd string HB. Not to mention that he can get good chunks of yardage in the run game now and then. Hilliard showed good hands and the ability to line up in the slot.

THEN there's Thigpen... If we for some reason don't give him a legitimate chance to win the starting QB spot i would be surprised. To be completely honest i think Thigpen is a hugely underrated QB and I would not be surprised if he did win the QB battle. He has experience already and did pretty well with no real targets at WR position in Kansas City. On top of that he had an iffy O-line. I think that the fact that I can even fathom us having 3 decent to good QB's in MIAMI is amazing, because honestly when was the last time you thought to yourself... DANG i wish we had kept Fiedler or man i wish we had Culpepper back... never.

I think people are going to underestimate our aerial assault this year. I mean Brandon Marshall is a no brainer #1 then there is Bess (who is an amazing slot guy)Hartline who is already showing flashes of big plays and OLD FAITHFUL Camarillo. With Cobbs back in the line up and Hilliard showing promise catching out of the backfield not to mention Fasano( who will be only 2 years removed from having 7TD's and a 13.4 YPC and 1 year removed from 2 TD's and 10.9 YPC) which is really good for how much he blocked last season. we have the makings to win games against teams who crowd the line AND drop back in coverage. And if Thigpen won the starting job he can catch and run in the wildcat or just scramble.

That's about it for my first post sorry it was more of a rant than anything but i just forgot about half the things i was thinking about OH and GO PHINS
