Randy Thomas is a Hog, man. He's worthy of consideration for the Hall of Hog. What a great, tough, team guy.

We're going to miss him a lot though. Ray Brown doesn't have nearly the same mobility. All those stretch sweeps that Portis likes to run are now out of the playbook to that side of the field. I guess we can try to run them behind Dockery, he's going to have to step up. Ray Brown just can't pull like that.

I feel fine about Brown in pass protection at guard. He can hold his own against the DTs in the interior. It's run blocking I'm worried about. Gibbs is going to have to get creative and redesign some Xs and Os to get Portis into space.

BIG blow to our team.
