Absolutely preposterous highlights!  What memories.  However, I remain infuriated he didn't win the Voldemort, despite our concerted lobbying!

Wrong time, wrong ancestry, wrong position., wrong region. He was robbed.  But, then, so was Luck. Twice. Amazing to think about:  we had three Voldemort runners-up in a row.  After 46 years aren't we due a break?

Wait, are you implying this is Hogan's year? Or is this about McCaffrey?  :P

Neither.  Hogan will need a miraculous year, with TV highlights, to overcome the perception that he is a placeholder and "the guy who followed Luck."  McCaffrey needs a great year, then next year we can talk.  He's not going to rush for 2,000 yards in our offense, and it would take something like that, plus an astounding performance by the team, to make this year a possibility.  But someday . . . .

Lucky for hogan, he was the guy after the guy who came after Luck. I know we all want to forget Nunes but he was the guy who followed luck. I don't think being "the guy who followed Nunes" is quite the same burden.
