I will miss TO's fun-loving personality, but what makes you think only one player can replace TO's production? Roy, Witten, Crayton, Austin and Bennett can be utilized more in the passing game. The running game can be emphasized more and can we throw to our backs more often. There are a number of ways to spread the ball around and replace those 1200 yards and 10 TDs. We may even surpass it.
Exactly.
Yes we will miss the home run threat he gave us and the attention he drew.
But we have other threats, we have other guys who can draw attention, and we have the makings of a very balanced attack with 2 good TEs, Roy, and 3 good RBs. If Austin stays healthy and develops we are really in business. The tools are there, we'll see if Garret and Tony are for real. If not, we weren't winning anything even with TO anyway.
Granted the Oline play needs to improve dramatically over last year or this is all moot, but again that could be said if TO was here or not.
