For me, I have to say it's our defense. We haven't had a legitimate MLB in a while and Ryans is really going to allow our d line to pin it's ears back because he is pretty much the exact kind of big, physical and intelligent MLB that we need with the d line scheme we play. We need a couple guys to step up but we have a good mixture of youth and athleticism and leadership and experience. We should be a lot better on that side of the ball next year.

I'm just happy to have football, man. I don't need anything else to be excited about.

I would like to express a sincere thank you to BoneKrusher for the badass sig and userbar.

Josh Freeman. This year will tell us if we have ourselves a franchise QB for the next 10 or so years.

Just to see what he have. We are what I'd consider phase 2 of the rebuilding process. The vets are out for the most part, we have a newborn identity and know we are a conservative/pound rock offense, and defensively we are able to stop both the pass and the run if we excecute. Now we need to see how these certain skill players fit into the scheme and hopefully watch them flourish and grow. If it succeeds we can create a window of superbowl opportunity starting in a year or two and hopefully have it last for a several years.

I'm interested to see how our new coaching staff looks. Also, our new players. Mainly Vincent Jackson, Carl Nicks, Mark Barron and Doug Martin.

For anyone that's a fan of Atlanta it's easy to say the acquisition of Asante Samuel, or the next step in maturation for Julio Jones. But for me it's the fact that we have new coordinators on both sides of the ball. I feel like both our offense and defense has had a leash on them. I can't wait to see what these guys can do with an offense that SHOULD HAVE BEEN explosive the past few years, and a really solid defense now. (Even without a solid MLB in the mix)

From a Patriots perspective...

- A hopefully revamped defense

- No more Bill O'Brien on the sidelines

- Gronk, Gronk, and more Gronk

This..

I'm also pumped about Antonio Brown..His rookie year was awesome and he has all the qualities to become an elite receiver..He still has to work a lot to get on Mike Wallace's level but he can produce a lot now,too..

Football season period...nothing like waking up on Sundays and having some football game to watch.

Da Bears wise I'm excited to see a new look offense with two big WRs on the outside and to see what Shea McClellin has to offer.

BradyFan81  : (22 May 2013 - 06:09 PM) i just didn't know what trap meant Bucman
Sarge+  : (22 May 2013 - 06:10 PM) a "trap house" is usually an abandoned, ghetto house where people go to make drug deals.
Sarge+  : (22 May 2013 - 06:11 PM) so if someone says "I'm going trapping" they probably mean they're gonna go sell drugs.
Sarge+  : (22 May 2013 - 06:11 PM) or "I trap on the side" as a job. haha
