I think we might see a few more screen passes and play action this year. McNabb has the experience from tossing it out to Westbrook all those years in Philly and we've got 3 backs that can catch.

Really? Have you seen Toby catch?

Saw at least one in the highlight thread.

Someone just posted a highlight Vid with lots of catches (and lots of runs) were he did pretty good.

As said above, I think all of our backs are gonna get a good workout with Dnabb under C. Cat loves to check down to the backs.

On a side note, for those who have been yearning to see the FB used as a weapon, you might get your wish. Dnabb hits all the backs coming out of the backfield.

He catches, but he does not have great technique for putting the ball away with the nose covered. That leaves him vulnerable to fumbles when hit in the midsection.
