You know, I am a very practical person by nature. Looking at a situation objectively happens to come natturally to me (not gloating, I promise). Being the die-hard boyz fan I am, I try very hard to be objective and practical. That being said, I see very little "doom and gloom" in the season to come for us Cowboy faithfuls. Everything that needed to be fixed IMO was taken care of with the exception of the RT position. IMO, if that is the only concern on our offensive line, then it wont be nearly as "offensive" as it was last year if you get my drift. Our defense has been totally revamped for the better, and our QB situation will be leaps and bounds over what it was last year. The young guys will do their part. Besides a mental mistake here and there, they will be fine. Its not like they dont know how to play ball. They will have spent the entire off-season learning our system, and the only adjustment will be the speed of the NFL. But for players like Spears and Ware, how much of an adjustment will it really be? LSU plays in the Big 12 against teams like OU, and UT. And given the type of player Spears is, he played at a higher speed than the college game already. D. Ware is coming from a school that has just recently come to the Division 1 group. Troy St. used to be 1-AA, and they still did well. He is no stranger to making transitions; not to mention that is the whole reason for the off-season. Granted 2nd and 3rd string players wont give you the best practice, but it is time on the field. I dont think we will have anything to worry about!!! (as I step down from my soapbox)
