With Ballard/Reich that is a very good thing. Ballard is picking up athletes of a certain ilk. It is looking like they are athletes of the kind that the coaching staff feels would work best in their particular style of football. Athletes that are raw and need molding by the coaching staff. Athletes that have a mental makeup that is conducive to being taught. If this staff can teach (and so far it seems like they can-the question is can they take it to the next level) things look pretty damn rosy for us Freaks. I'm pretty pumped to see what this team looks like on the field, especially in weeks 12-16 after a little seasoning.

Athletes, the people we had been lacking lately!
