With Proctor joining the hawks I thought of a recent weakness of the offense that might get much better and that is red zone pounding the ball in for TDs.

My memory is that Kirk's best teams could pound the ball in with the fullback lead play and any number of very good running backs following the blocks. The 2002-3 teams could, 2008 with ShonnG, 2009-10 with Wegher and ARob, there were big powerful running backs in 2011, 13, 14 and on. The last couple of years it was a struggle.

It will be great to see the running game come alive again and mesh with some much improved passing scheme play
