I believe this is a team on the up and up.

First crucial change started with new offensive coordinator Mike Heimerdinger who called the plays during McNair???s co-MVP year. Working with McNair he knows how to play too a mobile QB's strength and I think will help develop him as a passer. He has a cannon for an arm and a new coach can help accuracy and his decision making skills.

So you say improvement? There is one already in a literal sense. ^

They come back with a potent running 3 headed monster led by a vastly improved LenDale White who ran for 1,110 yards and seven touchdowns in his first season starting. They also have Chris Henry.

Their 1st rd draft pick Chris Johnson ran the fastest 40 (4.24) at this year???s combine. This is a new weapon that led the NCAA in all-purpose yards per game 227.69 in 2007. He will see significant playing time this year.

Pro Bowler Alge Crumpler was added this year. If there is one thing Vince knows how to do is utilize the TE. He used his TE profusely in UT's championship run and even more so in the NFL. When scrambling he is always looking underneath for his TE.

You say improve^^ I would say these are all improvements.

3 headed not 4 my good sir.

White is a clear cut thousand yard rusher.

You say improvement I present Chris Johnson.
You say "he is fast?Really?"
Yes. Just another additive to accentuate what the man is capable of. 227.69 all-purpose yards per game isn't an indicator of what he may do in the NFL but it nothing to slouch at. He has potential.

"working on that 27th ranked passing" - Come on Pimp, I addressed that with that Crumpler pick up. This is a man that was rotting away in Hotlanta behind inferior QB's. He will definitely improve their passing game.

If you need more, Tennessee wont exactly have big name stars but they are deep with talented receivers. Veteran Justin McCareins, Justin Gage,Chris Davis Brandon Jones, Roydell Williams, Paul Williams and rookie Lavelle Hawkins.

They plan to run plenty of two-tight end formations so Bo Scaife and Craig Stevens will get plenty of reps.

They are returning a decent line in franchise left tackle Michael Roos who is an underrated 6'7" 315-pound beast. He's started 48 consecutive games.Guard Jake Scott who helped anchor the Colts offensive line is highly underrated and durable. He IMPROVE an already stellar line.

"this guy should get Young 35 Tds and a SURE FIRE number one passing offense!!" - Im glad you agree pimp. You may as well forfeit.

Woaaa! I never said he was going to be the messiah or a little 8 pound 6 oz baby Jesus but merely an upgrade. Any TE that can get you 8-900 years and 5+ touchdowns is an upgrade over Bo Scaife who hasn't broken more than 2 TD's in a year of 500 yards in a season.

"1K yard seasons does Crumples have" - Is this all you look for in a TE. This man is also a great blocker who can get down field. There was only 3 TE's last year with 1k + yards. I guess the rest were garbage huh?

"Potential! Whoa! Like Peter Warrick?" - King of rhetoric. Nice. You know that's not what I meant. I meant he can be worked into the game as a weapon.

Well lets talk about there. D. That is the main reason they will stay in games and will improve. There defense brought back Jevon Kearse to be the flip side to and amazing right side of the line with Kyle Vanden Bosh and Albert Haynesworth. I'm sure there Defenses will be amongst the top this year again.

As much as people hate on VY he still led this team to 10 wins and the playoffs for 2 years. You all act like he is ROY!
