It's no different in football. Williams has set a hard pace for both veterans and rookies, and if he can carry that into the season, this will be a more exciting team to watch than we have had in years. It was a fast-paced team that was excited about football. It will be a pleasure to see a team that runs from start to finish again, a team that maintains intensity the whole season. That's how we want practice to go, to correct it before those decisions made under stress count on game day.
Preparation is a wonderful thing.
In the past, Buffalo has been VERY reluctant to actively involve rookies in their starting lineups. Levy rarely started rookies, and Morris was one of the few to ever play a starting role during Phillips' reign. Not so with Williams. Wilson is paying good money for Clements, Schobel, Henry, and company. And they have the talent to contribute, perhaps right away.
