You already have another TE, WR, but he's playing OLB. Back when Julius Peppers was at Carolina, they had some plays for him on offense, not that they ever worked, but the idea looked good to have a 6'7" receiver in the red zone. He once intercepted a pass and returned it 97 yards without scoring; nobody caught him while he was running, but when he stumbled and fell at the 3 yard line, that ended it. He wasn't used to running that far at once I guess.

After Mingo accomplishes enough on defence, they might consider making more use of his energy.

If Jake has a good year, I hope you can handle it. In 2003, when Carolina went to the superbowl, they were called the cardiac cats because so many games were won in the final few minutes. No team was blown away.

Rodney Peete started the first game of that season, and Carolina had 38 total yards in the first half. When Carolina got the ball in the second half, they were behind 17-0. The only substitution was at quarterback, but Carolina was a totally different team both running and passing. And the winning pass to Proehl was with seconds left.

It is not a worthless post. At worst you can say is that it is a premature post. The basic reason for it was that there had been discussion on here about attending road games...and doing the planning for attending a road game. We know about the schedule coming out tomorrow and the road games the Browns will play (3 in Fla./New Orleans/Buffalo/three AFC North cities). I was simply reporting on the locations the Browns would be playing the following year and whether or not there may be some interesting/fun/exciting locales to go to in addition to taking in a Browns road game. I am always thinking what there is to do and see in addition to the Browns game. The possibility of going to Seattle or the San Francisco/Oakland area or San Diego or Houston and seeing the environs around those cities is intriguing. If the ONLY thing I was interested in doing while on a road trip was to see the game, then why bother going any further than Pittsburgh or Cincinnati?

So if you're planning ahead, I like to try to get to the fans planning to come to New Orleans and suggest that money goes a lot farther in more interesting places than the French Quarter. you can ride the streecar for $1.25 and see beautiful homes up to where Loyola and Tulane Universities are on one side and Audubon Park is on the other. You can walk through the park to Magazine St. and take the bus ($1.25) along a very interesting street of stores and eating places, among others passing 2 Reginelli's (pizza) where on Monday or Tuesday you pay $2 for a pitcher of beer; maybe get off at Washington Ave and walk back towards the streetcar through the Garden District, where neighborly sorts might show you Sandra Bullock's house, Archie Manning's where Peyton and Eli grew up, the house that Nicholas Cage gave back to the bank, the big white house used in Benjamin Button, some of the places owned by Anne Rice, a cemetery occupying a square block, Commander's Palace restaurant if you've brought lots of money, and my house.
