From ESPNs Lenny P.........

"At least for this week, it seems, the Dan Snyder bashers are silenced. Virtually every one of the veterans he imported in the offseason contributed nicely to last Thursday's victory over the New York Jets. And the way Laveranues Coles played, especially in a first half when he dominated the secondary of his onetime employers, no one is quibbling about the gaudy $13 million signing bonus he received. If young quarterback Patrick Ramsey plays well, Coles will be a Pro Bowl player."

The only problem is there are so many good WRs it will be tough to crack the pro bowl. Last year Coles deserved it but didn't make it and I can see that happening over and over again.

Clark was absolutely fearless ... rugged ... crafty ... played hurt ... not to mention a good receiver ... I hope Coles can live up to the comparison ...

Henry Ellard was great in 1994. He had over 1400 yards receiving that year. If he didn't go to the Pro Bowl then he certainly deserved to do so.

I saw Gary Clark on the Doc Walker show a few weeks ago, and he hinted around at a comeback.. He almost sounded serious

You are a little off there Spence, but not much. He did not crack 1400 yards that season, 3 yards shy.
