A healthy Kleinsasser is going to be big in our two-headed rushing attack. He can pile drive and seal block better than any tight end in the league.

Love this quote...

He looks for a big improvement over last season's 6-10 record during coach Brad Childress' first year.

"I think the big thing is just the chemistry with the guys, and the coaching staff and players knowing each other a heck of a lot better," he said. "It's going to be a lot better this year.

To be brief, better than Shiancoe.

You really don't like him do you.

I'm not sure yet.
We really haven't seen any evidence that he will be good yet, however, we really haven't seen anything from the TE spot at all during pre-season, heck, last year for that matter.

Again, I am still hopefull (Suprise) that he will be worth the bucks.

No, and you know why.

Because he hasn't done shit in the NFL.

Sauce may not have the ability to stretch the field (Shiancoe has not shown this ability either by the way) but at least he is damned good at what he does. If Shiancoe doesn't turn out to be a stellar passing options, we might as well put Kleinsasser in for every play.

P.S. We are kind of in two threads right now. Let's try to consolidate the argument. You pick which thread, I'll follow. For the record, I'm usually leader.

You and I haven't done this in a bit.
I think we keep on saying the same thing in two threads.....
It will confuse the masses.
;D

Seriously, I am concerned over the TE use.
We'll see.
Hope my optimism turned pessimism isn't warranted.
;D
