With the next 5 weeks being among the most boring of the NFL season for us fans, Rich Tandler put together a good summation and review of the important dates and transactions over the past few months. I thought maybe a poll of which change (excluding the actual hiring of BA/MS) will affect our team the most in the upcoming season, or if no poll, then just a final discussion before Training Camp.

I will say for me the most euphoric moment for me still was the firing of Vinny that cold December morning. The joy and happiness that took over the Warpath and Skins fans in general was almost equal to winning SBXVII.
As for the events listed above, I would say the trade for McNabb will have the largest impact on the season. I think how he performs and if he can avoid throwing ground balls to the TE's in Kyle's offense then we will see an offense unlike anything we have seen since '91. He will have to prove he can take this team on his shoulders without choking, and I believe the first game against Dallas will set the tone for his leadership this season.
